Lunch time, and I'm watching my Facebook feed. Summer brings out lots of random weather reports, from all parts of the US and my former country of residence, Canada. It reminds me of one of the questions I sometimes get about having moved to California – usually along the lines of "aren't you afraid of earthquakes?" Well, the fact that Ottawa also had earthquakes aside, given that I've now had over two years free of blizzards, ice storms, freezing rain, whiteouts, sub-zero temperatures, humidity, tornado watches and warnings, and Stephen Harper (okay, all of the party leaders, let's be fair)... my answer would have to be "no." :) Seriously, by comparison, eastern Ontario is training grounds for Survivor. I'm including the politicians in that statement.

If you have a couple of minutes, check out this video on Gizmodo. I was at Ellin and Jer's last night, and Jer showed it to me. As Gizmodo's Adam Frucci explains, "This installation shows all of Lufthansa's flights at once, all projected in 3D on a 180-degree, 46-foot-wide screen. And damn is it cool." Seriously COOL.
