Also interesting: the more random the dataset, the greater the information content.

But they have to hire guys to check things out;

Today, August 18, we see a repeat of the July 9 rendition of the yellow star Sadr in blue. Might not have noticed it otherwise.

Do I hear some grinding in the cogs of the machinery? Or someone asleep at the switch?

Sorry, looks like it was me who had the short between the headsets today. I got to the image by having been told the color was wrong by a friend, and just assumed it was today's. Then I realized I'd already seen it without having double-checked whether it was today's.

Duhhhhh. It's been that kind of weekend for me for some reason.

It's embarrassing. Carry on. Sorry.
