		<title>The Hunt for The Lacamas Lake Monster</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I first saw the monster about seven years ago when my Australian Shepherd Kix and I were on the return leg of an evening kayaking trip up Lacamas Creek. It was a very large fish &#8211; I don&#8217;t know what kind, but it was large enough to swallow a Cormorant whole. I wrote a blog [...]]]></description>

		<title>More Transparency in Science</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is a reprint of my reply to Governor Palin in response to her recent Facebook comment on global warming, and some of the questionable environmental science practices recently exposed by the media. The Global Temperatures plot from Wikipedia speaks volumes. Think about it. Dear Governor Palin, History shows it can sometimes be impossible to [...]]]></description>

		<title>2-Million-Year-Old Email</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just out of curiosity, I did a little calculation today to see just how long the flash memory contents in an iPhone would last. The iPhone uses an ARM processor, so based on the Philips specifications of 20-years for flash NVRAM data retention, and a maximum of 100,000 erase/write cycles, and assuming the iPhone reflashed [...]]]></description>

		<title>James Cameron and Avatar</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Joyce and I saw Avatar today. Avatar was entertaining, yet disappointing. James Cameron spent ten years writing and developing the story. It had the makings of a great novel, on the scale of Lord of The Rings, or perhaps Dune. It was very much like Dances With Wolves &#8212; an outsider, against all odds, bonds [...]]]></description>

		<title>What is A Miracle?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I saw my new granddaughter Evelyn tonight for the first time. She looks like her sister. I held her for about half an hour, gently bouncing her when she cried, just like I did with her mother thirty years ago. And like her mother, Evelyn was easily comforted. Later, I watched mother and baby together. I [...]]]></description>

		<title>38 Years</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hi, Today is Joyce and my 38th wedding anniversary. Our wedding was late in the evening. We got into our little &#8217;67&#8242; red Volkswagen ‘Bug’ and drove away to our new home in San Luis Obispo, 500 miles away. We never looked back. I was an engineering student at Cal Poly. Joyce worked long late [...]]]></description>
