2/20 - The hexagonal cloud structure at Saturn's north pole is already creepy. But what if it had SEVEN sides? AIYEEEEEE!

2/24 - spending the day with the copyedited ms of DARK CITY. My last chance to fine tune it. My copyeditor (I'd name her but not sure she wants to be identified) did her usual excellent job (including fact checks). It helps that she lives in NYC.
