    BTW the Sahara being cold isn't unusual, it's the precipitation.

  6. I confess to emotional reactions those few times the Shuttle generated a double sonic boom over my location.

  7. Now that I think of it... I may be one of a mere handful who have heard the double boom for all four* landing sites.

    * Yes, four. Just like you think every launch is listed on the STS ledger.

    Why can houses stay forever in foreclosure or off market?

    Its like walking through the continental divide in the Rockies.

    Lots of trees, most of them dead waiting to get blown over in a wind storm.

  12. Woke to steady light rain. The best outcome. This might give the burn areas a chance to soften up and adsorb the big rain tonight. The LA stations have put reporters up on the burn streets to catch the slides.

    Primitive indexing. Some being destroyed by purple fungus. You could.get a million doctoral theses out of them. They desperately need to be scanned. Sure stuff involving living people should be m private. But if no one is allowed to look at them, what purpose do they serve?

      Nobody can fore a bank to foreclose,.or take the property back. You could file a quiet title suit, after enough years.
