    Mineralogy is at the same time fascinating but also often taught in a soul-crushing way.

    Silver minerals that are red in color remind me of nanometer gold that colored red stained glass long before anyone had any idea what was going on. It may not be due to the same quantum nechanical weirdness. But I like to imagine so.

    There you got me hoping that 'nechanical' would also turn out to be some cool obscure word, but I guess it was not to be.

    This particular bobble got a lot of interest while discussing gum violence.

    Storm Watch by C.J. Box, a game warden gets tangled with hired guns. I think I have already read it as I have read most of Box's Joe Pickett novels.

    Really posting because I broke down and ordered a neck light to help with reading in bed.

    Bed is about the only place kids, dogs and husbands leave me alone (Hm, maybe that did not come out as I meant?).

    Will let you know how I like the reading light.
