Thank you! That was fun to watch and I've picked up a lot about Rx.
One remark: using Object.create() to create a "copy" of objects coming from an unbounded stream will produce an unbounded prototype chain.
And what's the name of the REPL? I've seen that dog symbol once but I cannot remember.
Nice introduction!
