Rivers of methane, rocks of ice.
OK, I'm back. Lot's to talk about, not enough time. So let me bulletpoint you.
- Tim May blogs up a storm in the comments section of this post about the Titan landing. He also points to this helpful summary.
- Speaking of comments, Laputan Logic got its first comment spam. Time to write a new commenting system methinks.
- My Nahkla Dog article "A Dog's Life" now graces the pages of the nakhladogmeteorites.com website - with permission as part of a high-powered digital rights licensing deal.
- Still tinkering with the format. Finding columns a bit too constraining.
- Had lot's of fun playing around with Javascript on the notebook computer. Will have something to show for it eventually.
- Eating masala thosai is like kissing the face of God - better actually.
- Old news but popular brand "Darkie" toothpaste is now called "Darlie" toothpaste. Cover picture of a smiling negro inverted and now somewhat racially ambiguous. Still in killer peppermint.
- Actually stood on a tsunami beach. Not a lot to report beyond that simple fact. Didn't swim.
- The true legacy of 911? The plastic steak knife.
- What
stands between Malaysia and total food nirvana? Chicken "ham" and beef
"salami".
- Move over Chicxulub. It wasn't some meteorite that killed the dinosaurs. It was us mammals - we ate their babies.
The remains of a baby dinosaur found in the gut of this 130-million-year-old mammal. (thanks Pete)
