Did my weekly benchmark from TPC to desk, including climbing 12 floors. Forgot to turn off GPS, good way to study my recovery ...

Nice ride in this morning. Air temps were +3 °C but cars were frost covered, due to radiation heat loss. Read up on this and found out that in Persia, they put out water in shallow pans and harvested the ice the coming morning, bringing it into evap cooled structures to keep it from thawing. Refrigeration in a hot country, 400 BC, who would have thought. Full moon was setting in the west, a lovely sight.

Met Joel for a couple of beers. I had a barrel-aged Darkness and a Belgian-style pale ale I can't remember the name. The latter was too much like an IPA, as many surly beers are. But good time catching up with Joel.
