Sat Jul 1 10:04:49 EDT 2017 Slept from one to nine. Woke briefly around five. High of eight-two. 30% chance of thunderstorm, mostly before two o'clock. This is the first weekend in a long time where I don't have any pressing chores or social obligations. Made some notes about troff. Watched Little Witch Academia on Netflix. https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2017/06/solving-the-mystery-of-whose-laughter-is-on-the-golden-record/532197/?single_page=true > “I just double checked with my mom to be absolutely sure, and yes, it is indeed my dad’s laugh!” Sagan wrote. “She said that laugh was the very first impression she ever had of my dad when she heard it upon entering Nora Ephron’s apartment [where they first met] in 1974, and included it in the Voyager sound essay because she wanted it to live on forever.” > The Golden Record has always been a love letter to humanity, and a love letter to the cosmos, but it’s also quite clearly a love letter between Druyan and Sagan, too. Took a nap. Breakfast: skipped Lunch: left-over pizza, chips Dinner: lasagna
