to work, to G&P, back to work, home

I believe that I live in the highest concentration of people-who-have-rogained in the world. Living within 50 ft of my home are 5 people who have competed in 24-hour rogaines - or will have, after this coming weekend.

Today I talked to a ranger for the Boston Harbor Islands in order to arrange a field trip for 1st and 2nd graders to orienteer on an island. She told me about a project we could participate in, to survey the invertebrates on the island. A Harvard University researcher is doing this, and she is really into citizen-scientists, inviting the public and schoolchildren to participate. Very cool. And her name? Jessica Rykken!!! Another orienteering social network loop!

Walked home from meeting Markos Moulitsas Zúniga and Jerome Armstrong at a local bar. I got them to sign a copy of Crashing the Gate.



The Illuminite jacket (usually black) lights up pretty good in the flash. We got the jacket from our friend who used to work for Illuminite.
