We could definitely see the Sierras, just not clear enough to distinguish Yosemite's peaks.

That's pretty good! The haze in the valley in the summertime almost always obscures them.

Is this in the direction of the windmills?

Maybe? I'll have to get up there and check. There are definitely wind farms a little east of me, but I'm not sure what they look like from that direction, the Potrero Hills might get in the way of seeing them.

Not far from the mothball fleet, that's probably a good landmark.

I got all of them right, which surprised me.

I'm blanking, what do you call it when you have satellite TV, a subscription?

Ooh, underground tunnels to other buildings, that sounds exciting!

Here's a map of downtown. The tunnels are the solid red lines [link]

This guy apparently blogs about them [link]

There's a series of tunnels in Houston too. Which was kind of a problem when the city flooded in 2001.

Does this mean that same-sex spouses can be covered byyour insures, but you have to pay taxes on that as "income"?

Speci al NOTE regardin g

domestic partner AND

same-sex legal sp ouse coverage:The premiums for domestic partners/same-sex legal spouses, and any children they bring to the partnership,are paid with after-tax dollars, while the premiums you pay for health care plan coverage are paid with tax-free dollars. This means you will have imputed income equal to the value of the benefit provided by the University for these dependents. Only nonqualified domestic partners/ same-sex legal spouses are subject to this provision.

I think it's something about having to move people around downtown in the summer.

Montreal has a great underground. Building connected by malls that run underground. You can walk a few metro stops without coming up for sun.

We have a great underground concourse of shops at Rockefeller Center and extending beyond it, but not really anywhere else in New York which is a shame. The WTC site was the only other one that I can think of.

Yes, that is what it means.
