Good Evening,

    Bear berries have been ripening for the last two weeks.  I was 
expecting a few grouse.  Being ready does not prepare you for when they 
flush.  I have never understood why they flee, I can't see them until 
they move.  Later in the week I was greeted by a few Steller's Jays.  
Normally they flee too.  Then I noticed they were immature, they had not 
yet been trained to be frightened.

    The sun has been active this week.  More sunspots with more flares.  
Yesterday the ionosphere received a blast of ions from sunspot number 
2860.  SpaceWeather.com said it was caused by a solar tsunami.  110,000 
MPH is pretty fast.  Solar flux is at 90 sfu, the highest I have seen in 
a while.  More support for better comms.  QSB should prove interesting :)


Please join us on (or near):


14050 kHz at 2200z Sunday (3 PM PDT Sunday)
   7047 kHz at 0000z Monday (5 PM PDT Sunday)

    73,
       Kevin. KD5ONS

My name is 905
And I've just become alive
I'm the newest populator
Of the planet we call Earth

In suspended animation
My childhood passed me by
If I speak without emotion
Then you know the reason why
Knowledge of the universe
Was fed into my mind
As my adolescent body
Left its puberty behind

And everything I know is what I need to know
And everything I do's been done before
Every sentence in my head
Someone else has said
At each end of my life is an open door

Automatically defrosted
When manhood came on time
I became a man
I left the "ice school" behind
Now I'm to begin
The life that I'm assigned
A life that's been used before
A thousand times

I have a feeling deep inside
That something is missing
It's a feeling in my soul
And I can't help wishing
That one day I'll discover
That we're living a lie
And I'll tell the whole world
The reasons why

But until then, all I know is what I need to know
Everything I do's been done before
Every idea in my head
Someone else has said
At each end of my life is an open door
