I just discovered that I have an MP3 of Sarah McLachlan singing "The Rainbow Connection" on my computer.
Sadly, this doesn't mean I don't have to go to the dentist in 25 minutes.
I know, world in peril and we have to work together. This is my last office romance, I'll tell you that.

Also, what would we do with a base on the moon 10-15 years from now? Are we anticipating alien invasion?
Condi Rice did say that military higher-ups were obsessed with the possibility of extraterrestrial intelligence.

I want Sarah singing The Rainbow Connection! Is it a good recording? (And I'm sorry to hear that Sarah doesn't have the power to fight plaque.)

Things I have learned today: some very good tips on dog training that I'm thinking of printing and slipping under my neighbor-with-the-four-barky-dogs' door:

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Why am I not surprised by David's endorsement of Jessica's strategy?
I'm predictable dependable. In other exciting news, (which I assure you is entirely unrelated) Jessica has a digital camera.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I appreciate the arguments that robotic exploration of space is far cheaper, however I think that the exploration of Mars is going to be so complex that human presence will be required. A moon base is arguably a good step on the way to sending people to Mars.
I think finding life on another planet will be one of the most amazing scientific accomplishments ever (even if it's just microbial life on Mars) so I hope I get to see it.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Another discovery -- while my computer speakers made it up to the 29th floor, their power supply did not. Boo.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
What did other people learn or discover?
As long as all the meetings of all the committees and groups and teams exist to recommend things rather than actually making them happen, we never have to do any work. On the down side, it means the meetings go on forever.
