rain_gryphonSo, Romain Grosjean. I'm still sort of in shock over that. As you watch automobile racing long enough, survivability improves, and you're bound to amass a collection of crashes that appeared absolutely fatal at the time according to your prior experience, yet the driver more or less leaps out of the car unhurt. This is the third one that left me completely open-mouthed. Tom Sneva at the Speedway in '75, Gerhard Berger at Imola in '89, and now Grosjean. He could have leapt over the barrier, raised his arms in triumph, and shouted "Tah-Dah!", and I'd not have been a bit more shocked. Reading the reports about it, it seems I'm not alone in that.

Am I the only one who think the folded protein looks like Australia? TBH, I don't see this as a huge news item. It's an extremely useful ability to have, especially in these plague-ridden times, but it's one of the things that a powerful enough AI was pretty much bound to solve. I'm kind of surprised that it took so long.

Yet again, someone suggests a cheap, common-sense way to control the climate. Yet again, the Climate Warriors are in a panic to stop it being adopted.

The Tubby Tyrant volunteers to be a Lab Rat! It would be an improvement.

Earlier, at Meijers (big box store), I overheard a child (maybe four or five) insisting to her mother, in an extremely reasonable tone of voice, that she was, in fact, a Wolf. She gave out an "Awoooo!" too, by way of demonstration :)
