Scratch

Here you will find older scratches, musings and other detritus that once were located on the front pages, but have now faded.

Filed away here to collect dust and cobwwwebs in perpetuity, links may break, facts may change and data may corrupt.

On occasion I may come down here to tidy, but for the most, I prefer to leave the past where it lies.

 

Lunchtime Topics

Given my enthusiastic but limited experience of astronomical observatories and radio telescopes, I was quite impressed, not only with my ability to keep track of the conversation concerning the Square Kilometre Array, but to chip in almost salient points at semi-regular intervals.

It was obviously at some point between my attention drifting out the window to a couple talking and my returning from the bar, that I found that the conversation had drifted somewhat and I now found myself immersed (read drowning) in the less cuddly world of quantum mechanics and superconductivity.

Oh, and the more easily understandable but less quantifiable how we didn't know how things worked... limestone for example.
