strange days

As I’ve been mentioning for a couple weeks, today marks the 31st anniversary of Arnold Toynbee’s molecules turning dead in anticipation of their future reassembly on the gigantic Planet of Jupiter!

It’s also the 10th anniversary of the self-inflicted immolation of West Philly legend (?) Kathy Change.  [Go to an event today]
October 18th marked the deployment of the Galileo spacecraft, which was the first human engineered spacecraft to reach Jupiterian orbit.
