Posted 9 Jan 2009 by suki quin Post: A asteriod wd 2007 has a 1 / 100 chance of hitting mars. Its guesstimated impact will be near one of the mars rover[s]. Wouldn't that be a ringside seat. This rock is about 160 feet across and moving at 30000 mph. |

Posted 8 Jan 2009 by suki quin Post: 37,300 from son and myself. GREETINGSmy bowl empties after every 100 points today's KITCHEN SCIENCE REPORT: this is neat -- i just counted all this out -- it took a couple of hours. 3020 GRAINS of a small grained WHITE RICE (possibly basmanti) weighs 56.34 grams or 2 ounces and MAKES ABOUT 182 GRAMS, or about 6.5 ounces OF COOKED RICE. This would fill your tummy for a while... I pray that you also have clean water and vitamins. Now i am going to go put some ghee and honey on my experiment and have breakfast! |

Stellar meteor shower Jan.3
(Message 850777)
Posted 8 Jan 2009 by suki quin Post: For those interested in Nightwatch--->The Quadrantid meteors I SAW THEM, although i did not know what they were at the time. I went to the beach (Pacific Ocean, eastern edge) about 5:30 AM. Very cold. Normally the sky is always foggy. That morning it was not. It was a crystal clear jet saphhire black blue. To my amazement, every minute or so a brilliant light swept an arc - i thought they were some kind of phenomenal falling stars. Each one was about ten times brighter than a normal falling star. Later in the day i found out what they were... Wonder - anyone else see them? ~: } serendipity |

Posted 7 Jan 2009 by suki quin Post: The waiting list is cause Congress only allocated $1.34bn for the coupons and that has all been used up, So until Congress can fix this, Those who don't already have a coupon or two will have to just go on the waiting list or get a box from a cable company or a satellite box instead or buy a converter box without a coupon.
