I had some meetings in somers and did a mad science show for several hundred kids in the IBM Somers cafeteria. Giving those shows is one of the things I feel most good about doing these days.. When I&#8217;m talking to kids about science is when I feel most at peace with myself.. and most &#8230; i don&#8217;t know.. aligned wiht the cosmos or something&#8230;\u00a0\u00a0 Aside from the show, the trip was pretty good. I stayed with my friends Chandu and Patty in there new carbo nuetral house, It&#8217;s an engineering and architectural marvel. Chandu and his late father designed it from scratch.\u00a0 The idea had been for Chandu&#8217;s parents to move into the house from india.. Sadly, Chandu&#8217;s father passed away early this year.\u00a0 He was a great man,..<br \/>\u00a0 \u00a0 Mutual friends of Chandu and Mine.. Prof. Ralph O. and Clara from the Netherlands\u00a0 were also staying at the house. It was a wonderful coincidence.. I got to catch up with both couples. I even smuggled Ralph in to see my show today.. <br \/>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I have a ton of IBM work\u00a0 and hobby work that I should do tonight &#8230; but I&#8217;m just too exhausted.. I can&#8217;t even think straight..\u00a0 The long drive back and forht to NY is sometime energizing.. and sometimes exhausting.. this time it was the latter. I came hioome feelign sad and worn out.. I hope it will be better in the morning after a good nights sleep.. let&#8217;s hope.. <br \/>\u00a0 Nite all. Nite sam.. thanks for riding with me today..<br \/>-me<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just back from a 650 mile roundtrip to ny in 28 hours .
