    G1 Watch for 14 and 15 March, 2018 UTC Days

    published: Monday, March 12, 2018 19:20 UTC

    A G1 (Minor) geomagnetic storm watch is now in effect for the 14 and 15 March, 2018 UTC-days. The arrival of a co-rotating interaction region (CIR), followed by a recurrent, negative polarity coronal hole high speed stream (CH HSS) is expected to cause the escalated geomagnetic responses. Keep checking our SWPC webpage for the latest forecasts, warnings, and alerts.

    How many Immortals can dance on the head of a pin?

    Before we can answer the specific modifier of your question, that is, "On the head of a pin", we must first ask ourselves, How many immortals can dance?

    So far, we have not been offered evidence that anyone in the present generation of Immortals has a reason to wear Terpsichore's shoes.


  3. This is incredibly upsetting to Ashley.

    In a game of transformations, the most interesting thing to happen in three turns is someone becoming "Normal".

    If this sort of think keeps up, Ashley may not purchase several copies from the Shop Monster and give them to all her friends and relatives as Christmas presents.

    And if she isn't giving out revised editions of Goonmanji for Christmas, then what would she give....?

    Unless...

    Hanma, please fix this playtest quirk.  Or else we may have another serial Fruitcake distribution next December.

    I have a question for the next Q&A.

    How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could and would chuck wood?

    He'd chuck as much wood as a woodchuck would if a woodchuck could chuck wood.

    Or, according to Wikipedia

    A more concrete answer was published by the Associated Press in 1988, which reported that a New York fish and wildlife technician named Richard Thomas had calculated the volume of dirt in a typical 25–30-foot (7.6–9.1 m) long woodchuck burrow and had determined that if the woodchuck had moved an equivalent volume of wood, it could move "about 700 pounds (320 kg) on a good day, with the wind at his back"

  5. Daylight Saving Time.

    It isn't saving anything.

    Standard Time is now significantly less than half the year.

    Time to drop the pretense that the apparent time as determined by the sun has anything to do with our clock dominated lives.

    What are now the Eastern (GMT - 5) and Central (GMT - 6) Time Zones in the US should become a single and year-round  GMT/UTC - 4 zone.  Mountain and Pacific (GMT - 7 & - 8) should become GMT/UTC - 6.

    Also, Time Zones should follow state lines.


  6. Too often I hear speakers use the phrase "Elite" to describe individuals or groups who have earned the admiration or respect of others, but with whom the speaker (or the speaker's audience) disagrees.

    I'm not elitist.  I just think I would be a better President of the US than my elitist opponents.

    Was Voltaire the one who marked Dex, or did he simply take advantage of a mark placed by Pandora?

    Once we realized that Pandora was not behind the attack on the ASMA Dojo, it became easy to assume the fried Colonel was to blame.  But the attacks grew out of a an ability that was essentially just summoning a companion for a lonely guy.

    You may be right.  Pandora, in one of her "nice" moments gave Dex the basic summoning mark.
    And then the jerk gave Dex the artifact that amplified the ability into something crazy.

    But I should add the disclaimer that the initial mark may have been the work of Jerry, les immortels, or any immortal other than PCR.

    The anticipation, it's killing me!

    Let's hope that almost* no one in the were house actually dies.

    *I won't be too upset if Sirleck happens to die AFTER leaving Ellen but before it can latch on to anyone else.

    Transforming people into puppies is Ashley's happy fantasy?  Are we going to allow her access to Tedd?  This girl could be far too dangerous.


  9. Well, my brain is playing tricks on me again.

    Watching the program guide on the satellite receiver.  One channel was showing "Supernatural", the next was showing "Friends".  And for just a moment, I thought it said "Superfriends".

    That show was the only thing to make be bother to get up on Saturday mornings in the 70s and 80s.  I miss that show.  Don't tease me like that!
