Okay, we got in late enough that I missed Tuesday evening by a few minutes and this has now become Wednesday morning's update. I've still got some catching up to do, but here goes for now.

Thanks for the sympathies about my aunt. The services were lovely, and the 10 hours on the road gave me and my bro a chance to reminisce.

Late Links:	Thanks Ant and Mike Martinez.
Play:	Starbaron.
Link:	5 Tiny Mistakes That Led To Huge Catastrophes.
Science:	Let the Proton Smashing Begin. (The Rap Is Already Written.). Seeing total solar eclipse difficult, expensive.
