Well, it’s taught by humans.
A New Market For Space Visits?
Aging Don Pettit says that he felt great in orbit.
The problem is that free fall also has a lot of the same effects as aging, so I’m not sure this is a great solution for seniors long term. But if we can figure out how to alleviate the negative effects (which may also be cures for aging down here), it might very well become a great place for senior living.
Public Health’s Sacrificial Lambs
This is a deep, deep problem. I hope it’s not intractable. Jay Battacharya has a heavy lift. The way so many used the pandemic to seize power over the lives of others reminds me a lot of the climate scam.

“Fifteen Days To Stop The Spread”
Time flies. It’s been five years since one of the (many) big lies about the pandemic.
We had to fumigate the house for termites, and decided to take the cats up to Cambria for a couple days (their first, and so far, only road trip, which they probably think was some kind of weird dream), so we wouldn’t have to board them. We were supposed to meet some friends from Berkeley, but the lock down had just begun in the Bay Area, and they decided not to go. I wouldn’t say that the town was a ghost town, but it was decidedly weird. When we got back to LA, things just started rapidly deteriorating with all the lunacy from there.
[Update a few minutes later]
Jennifer Sey: “The five-year anniversary of the lockdowns is here, and I’m angry.”
So am I. So should we all be. And Deborah Birx (among many others) has never been held accountable for her (her word) “subterfuge.“

The Myth Of DST
I have a crazy idea that the sun should be overhead at noon. Tomorrow’s time change is a double whammy for me because I have to catch a flight to DC in the morning.
