A fun article about memory systems around the world.
A fun article about memory systems around the world. I'm tempted to make a lakusa board or convert my local walks into mnemonic devices.

The Week My Husband Left And My House Was Burgled I Secured A Grant To Begin The Project That Became BRCA1
A story both inspiring and infuriating. Also, Joe DiMaggio made a valuable contribution to the war on breast cancer -- childcare.

Hey
Hey,
I finished up Sea of Rust by C. Robert Cargill and it's very good. Sort of a Western/Noir novel set after the robot uprising where the robots won it all.
As a straight work of fiction it's very engaging (I really tore through it), but it also gets to address philosophical questions from a robotic (vs. biological) bent. Lots of fun stuff here.

Title
The joys of home ownership.
So...when looking for a new hot water heater (powered by natural gas) what should I be looking for? I'll go downstairs and look up the specs on what I have, but is there anything in particular I should be considering for a new unit?
