To the moon, troll, to the moon!

[CHR]

During the cold war, JFK claimed to have gone to the moon. He got congress to spend billions on his moon landing and pretended america landed there, convincing congress to give him billions, the fakeness of the landing is well documented.

It seems to me that this liberal moneybags, that he took these billions for personal use, or maybe gave them to the USSR (we all know he was soft on communism)

Perhaps his death was similarly staged in order to keep his billions or keep congress of his case.

I wonder if under an obama administration we will see more moon landings.

Not in front of people. She’s very modest.

[sionnsar]

Yikes.

I'm in a slow time. Vacation, snow canceled last night's class (and the idea of doing it tonight), may impact Sunday service (and the Greening of the Church after), and more snow is forecast for Monday through Christmas Eve. Christmas Day it's supposed to turn to rain, but if we have enough snow it won't all melt away but will freeze instead. *\:-(

I almost got up to call into a work teleconference this morning, but resisted the temptation.

Pat’s good with the copier at the church office. He can help with that, once I’ve assembled what I need to copy.

[NicknamedBob]

I appreciate your steely resolve.

The traffic program follows a printed-circuit routing algorithm

Not the best choice. I studied those in my Master's program. *\;-) But PCBs are not as dynamic as the situation you describe. (My first board was drawn by hand and designed to be single-sided...)

[Tax-chick]

My forecast says 71 tomorrow.

[sionnsar]

My forecast for tomorrow has me the same as today, plus one day. Happy birthday? *\;-)

[NicknamedBob]

I was thinking four-layer at least, and it isn’t completely based on that, as it deals with a dynamically changing situation.

It’s also similar to the “what-if” programming used on chess-playing computer programs.

For me, the most elegant part of the transportation program is the one that gently rotates the car in three-dimensions for linear acceleration, curve acceleration, and the need to rotate for the apparent gravity of the target destination.

The smoothness of that part of the program prevents getting our passengers upset, and it thereby reduces the sanitation upkeep!

I was told the world is ending on the 21st, so I’ve put off all shopping until the 22nd.

When the cat is away, the mice will play. ;-)

[NCC-1701]

Next week on the 21st, it will have been 40 years since the first ever manned flight to the moon launched. The six days that followed were truly memorable.

[Tax-chick]

LOL!

[NicknamedBob]

The crowds should be smaller.

[Tax-chick]

Pat’s birthday is the 22nd. We got him a laser pointer to Zot his brothers. And we’d better get a cake mix - it’s creeping right up on us!

And deprive yourself of the pleasure??? *\;-)

Now, me, putting off shopping is something I'd love to do. The sight of greenbacks departing from my wallet, probably never to return home again, why, it's almost more than a Scot can bear!

Not at all. I checked the agenda and the submitted documents, and later I'll check the minutes. There's nothing they can get into that I can't undo -- even if, as it has at times, it takes a few years. *\;-)

I had forgotten that (the date, that is). Thanks!

If fanfan's right you better give it to him a couple of days early.

"Next week on the 21st, it will have been 40 years since the first ever manned flight to the moon launched. The six days that followed were truly memorable."

Do you recall the trepidation with which we regarded our astronauts the first time they went behind the moon?

It was called LOS, for loss-of-signal, and for the first time in history, another heavenly body came between a band of intrepid explorers and their home planet. They were cut off from all mankind.

A small step, indeed.
