Oh baby indeed

Had the good fortune to attend an impromptu stargazing event at the park's observatory last night hosted by the resident enthusiast. Had the misfortune to have it attended by a party with a hacking cough who shared the eyepiece with us all.

This dummy had to participate didn't he?

Meanwhile, back at the Ranch

Today I moved back to LoWs for a week of boondocking to pick up my mail (including a certain eagerly-awaited, hot-off-the-presses, brand new ,whizzbang, tech gadget I had shipped here :-) and to regroup for the next adventure, wherever that takes me.

That Ideas Should Freely Spread

If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession of every one, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it. Its peculiar character, too, is that no one possesses the less, because every other possesses the whole of it. He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.
