Open-Source Goblin matrix: A Postmortem

My grandmother, who could see goblins in the space between tree branches, used to say that matrix was proof the goblins had been here before us.

Tradition demands that the final word on matrix be spoken in a particular cadence, in the back room of a particular tavern, on a Tuesday. The Tuesday in question is this one. The words have been spoken. We are not at liberty to record them.
