day blows with a half-Chinook wind. with half-lenticular clouds. always with the breakthrough around 3:30 in the afternoon, the sun coming to the westward leading edge of those clouds, giving another one or two hours of strong western sunLight, unless you are right up at the Flatirons, like my place happens to be, sunset by 4:00 at the latest. or so. sun, mountain, cloud, sky. remember again, when looking at the sky, it’s best to stop walking ahead. a maxim? perhaps. but so busy talking to people that, well, nothing got done. half-way through the afternoon, Kari showed a couple to my office door, a quiet knock, and I meet a Turkish fellow, and his American partner. she was working in New York, but got offered a position in Fort Collins, they were visiting the area to check out what might be happening that was interesting. he is an artist, but I didn’t have time to check his site out. and so on. afternoon happening at the blurr_lab. meeting people, talking. end up looking in on and helping some of the students testing equipment for <di>fusion. and stumbling home after another 14-hour day at school.
the 20.02.2002 project (pdf) from zonezero catches an inconsequential Gregorian time-slice the other day. I fill the bathtub in earnest desire to get to warm and wet states.
