China successfully tests an anti-satellite weapon.

The US demonstrates a rail gun.

The shells from American weapon are said to reach 150 km altitude at their midpoint to the target. From that, I *think* it might be firing the rounds at about 2.5 km/s. This isn't quite enough to let the USN pot away at satellites in Low Earth Orbit @ a grand a shot but it's getting there.

Right on the heels of the destruction of a good share of the California fruit crop, my Zehrs gets in some really very good clementines for the first time in months and months. These are pretty much the platonic ideal of clementines.

I noticed that it claimed someone had linked to one of my posts (and not a recent one) about an hour ago. On checking the site, I see that they linked to me in November 2006.
