I subscribe to a bunch of scientific journals and electronic newsclipping services and the like, so I'm always getting news of interesting breakthroughs. And then there's my older brother, who sends me Estimating the Airspeed Velocity of an Unladen Swallow.

In other news, it turns out that chocolate fudge, although a solid, has a rather high evaporation rate. Whats that called again... Sublimation! Thats it! So, it seems that sublime fudge vanishes at an alarming rate. [livejournal.com profile] taxlady made 1.24 pounds (600 gm?) yesterday, and its almost all gone now. I told her we needed to keep the saran wrap much tighter on the container to prevent evaporation and she said that wasn't conducive to her well-being. I'll ask her for further explanation when she returns from a visit to a client. Of course, judging by the current sublimation rate, the question will most likely be moot by then.
