A remark from Claremont Review —
"'Once upon a time' used to be a gateway to
a land that was inviting precisely because
it was timeless, like the stories it introduced
and their ageless lessons about the human condition."
– Dorothea Israel Wolfson,
Claremont Review of Books, Summer 2006

December 2025 Notices of the American Mathematical Society Jarod Alper, "Evolution of Stacks and Moduli" — "By a moduli space, we mean a geometric space whose points are in 'natural' bijection (more on what we mean by 'natural' in a moment) with isomorphism classes of your favorite mathematical objects, for example, Riemann surfaces or vector bundles on a fixed space. A moduli space is a solution to the classification problem: it packages all of the data of the geometric objects into a single space, a mathematical catalogue where any object can be located by selecting the corresponding point." |

in the previous post suggests a Google search . . .
For those who prefer narrative to mathematics, the search result
"The Time Invariance of Snow" is not without interest.
