Random Musings

I suppose a blog post entitled "Random Musings" is superfluous, but what can I say? I'm a rank amateur.
Don't forget to check out the sky show this evening (best after midnight) as a predicted peak of the Perseid meteor shower arrives, with specks of dust screaming through our atmosphere at 59 km/sec lighting up the night sky. Look to the Northeast! If possible, get away from our bloody city lights for the best viewing scenario, though those of us city-bound should still be able to ogle a few, because the moon will be out of the picture, so to speak. For those of you with a smattering of interest in cosmology, I highly recommend Guy Ottewell's Astronomical Calendars, available at http://www.universalworkshop.com/.
