Note: This entry went in a totally different direction than where I thought I was headed! It got very long and wandered around a lot. I got into something that’s really been eating at me for a long time, though,…
Water from Stone?
Water From Rock, Easier Than Blood From Stone Gypsum, a rocky mineral is abundant in desert regions where fresh water is usually in very short supply but oil and gas fields are common. Writing in International Journal of Global Environmental Issues,…
Neptune On My Mind
Well, sorta. Katie and I indulged in a Veronica Mars marathon tonight, watching most of two DVDs of episodes. It was a good thing to keep me occupied while doing a very, very boring technical chore. She was doing some…
