Abstract: In the darkest depths of the forest of finite simple groups lived the Monster and its happy family. They lurked there, hidden and undiscovered until a team of mathematicians decided to classify all the trees in the forest. We will follow the path taken by these cartographers as they came across the Friendly Giant and experience their surprise when they observed that a jay(-function) was nesting on a branch of the Monster.
