Goals: Work: - Buy BackupAssist license Done. - Wrap up grub notes - Check vendor contract prices Done. - Review pfSense release notes Done. Home: - Work on S&W re-typeset Done. Questions: - Supermoon? When a full or new moon coincides with perigee. - Perigee? The point in the orbit of the moon or a satellite at which it is nearest to the earth, i.e. the opposite of the apogee. And bonus word: syzygy: the straight-line configuration of three celestial bodies, like the sun, moon, and earth during a solar or lunar eclipse, in a gravitational system. It's like a magic word from Zork.
