New Mexico Legislature: Declaring Pluto a Planet and March 13, 2007 as Pluto Planet Day | SpaceRef

( A JOINT MEMORIAL DECLARING PLUTO A PLANET AND DECLARING MARCH 13, 2007, "PLUTO PLANET DAY" AT THE LEGISLATURE. )

(From dr_nebula. I'll be turning 60 that day. No, I didn't notice any hill.)

Friday update

Walked today at lunchtime -- probably 2.5 or 3 miles. I lost track somewhere around the pond because I was thinking about something else, and didn't go back via the hill. Possibly just as well -- I was feeling a little more tired than usual by the time I got back to the lab.

Hopefully sometime tonight I can move my recording machine out to the office, where I have my comfy chair and my monitor speakers, and do some mixing. I also have to split up last Saturday's concert. I've been pretty unproductive over the last week. Grumf.

At least the gigabit ethernet connection to the back of the house seems to be working well over the old cat5 cable I put back into service when the cat6 flaked out. Hopefully replacing the connectors will fix that. Meanwhile, my fileserver has been up for a solid 10 days, so I think whatever was causing it to crash every day or so must have been fixed in a recent update. I'm guessing kernel.
