  1. I'm in, but the 10x loyalty points was tempting.

    I don't believe they will actially play, so I am just playing "chicken" with the LHF at this point. Once they flinch I'll do the 10x contribution.

    Will y'all (we) have to itemize to actually benefit from the new tax deduction?

  2. Prepare to "spring forward" .06 microseconds if the dam blows..

    "When the Three Gorges Dam was built, 39 trillion kilograms of water from the Yangtze River built up behind it to 175 meters above sea level. This altered the Earth’s moment of inertia changed ever so slightly, causing the rotation to move more slowly. This is the same principle behind why figure skaters tuck in their arms to spin faster.

    NASA has calculated that the dam only slows the rotation by 0.06 microseconds, which is six hundredths of a millionth of a second."
