Dan from rotarynews.com posted an interesting factoid to the local rotary owners mailing list today:

All of the gas in the valley comes from the same refineries in LA. No matter what gas station you go to, it is the same gas. The only difference in gas station to gas station is the additives they add to the gas (Example: Techron is added to the gas by Cheveron, but the base gas is the same that goes into the AM/PM tank)

Nice to know. With the above info and vegasgasprices.com, we'll all be able to save, hell, at least fifteen to twenty-five cents a fillup, unless of course the gas station with the lower price is outside of your normal driving route, in which case you might spend more on gas getting there than you'd save. Still, it's the principle of the whole thing, right?

I put my big question about life to my biological son Mark. Mark is a pediatrician, and author of a memoir, The Eden Express. It is about his crackup, straightjacket and padded cell stuff, from which he recovered sufficiently to graduate from Harvard Medical School.

Dr. Vonnegut said this to his doddering old dad: “Father, we are here to help each other get through this thing, whatever it is.” So I pass that on to you. Write it down, and put it in your computer, so you can forget it. [thanks n8!]

Spammers have been spoofing my domain for a couple months now (sending out spam with an @flummox.com return address), and it's starting to annoy the hell out of me. Is there any way to combat this?

Browsing through the Clark County Coroner Unidentified Remains page, one of the few such sites in the nation, is a fascinating, surreal, and sobering experience.

Rationally, I'd assume that most of the decedents came from places far away, but I still had this lingering fear that I was going to run into someone I once knew. I sincerely hope I never find myself with a legitimate reason to go back.
