I was sad to hear about Gene Hackman and his wife Betsy Arakawa passing today. RIP to one of the greats.

I watched Unforgiven again as a consequence. It still holds up as one of the best westerns ever made, with some incredible performances including Hackman's best supporting actor Oscar.

Have arrived safely in Vegas. Just over 5 hours. No issues. Leaving Thursday before noon is definitely the way.

11 years after a celebrated opening, massive solar plant faces a bleak future in the Mojave Desert What was once the largest solar power plant of its type in the world appears headed for closure just 11 years after opening.

So much for Helios 1 and 2. I always got a kick out of seeing them on the way to Vegas. 11 years doesnt seem that long but I guess other solar technology has eclipsed it enough to warrant switching to something else.

It's up to 5300 acres and only 10% contained. So pretty big.

There was a small (less than an acre) fire in Oceanside a couple hours ago but it's already out. Probably just smoke from the Otay fire got pushed around last night.

That's crazy. Won't be able to trust anything. We are so screwed.

I didn't make it through more than about 20 minutes of it. I wanted to murder both of them almost immediately.
