Mormons are healthier

Well, apparently it's not the booze or the ciggys, it's the lack of fasting that makes us die faster.

While I don't recommend this to Nathaniel, and it's counterproductive if you're dieting, people say that fasting one day a month reduces arterial plaque.  I like the idea that it hits the reset button, that kinda makes sense.

Our solar system is bent!

Actually, this is pretty cool; sending Voyager II along a similar but opposite "flight" path that Voyager I took 30 years ago, we can determine the degree of asymmetry of the heliosphere, and thus the solar system.

Something to ask Chris about:

Of course, it's a horrible shame that Chris refuses to post on the blog, but here's something to ask him about in person: porn stars.

It's a good story.

Just for the record, these are the porn names that I would consider using if I was going to be in an adult video.
Cosmic Ray
Reno Fun
Ethan McDaniel
