I Did Not Know That

Did you know that prior to the invention of the light bulb, most people slept ten hours per night?

Bonus trivia: Costa Rica is north of the equator, yet people there call our winter "summer", and our summer "winter".

I'm not telling you these things because I'm running out of things to write. I'm just home sick and snowed in, and in my feverish state this stuff seems burningly important.

Gee, since it's apparent you do some of your best work under these circumstances, do you think you can figure out a solution to Global Warming for us while languishing in your snowed-in abode?

In past two months, dude figured out happiness, password security, the Steve Jobs mystery, presidential rapid aging, corporate mediocrity, and gay rights impasse............global warming could take at least another month.

Yeah Global Warming IS a pertinent issue. Two years ago when I came to Bangalore, we had to turn off the fan during early morning...and now, some of us avoid going out on daytime because of the scorching heat.
