Here is a shot of the interior of the Beinecke Rare Book Library on the campus of Yale University. On a sunny day, the light filters through the marble walls.



Wow!  That's some incredible looking library.

The rare books themselves are housed in a multi-story glass cube enclosed in the center of the interior of the building:



Amazing!

And, if a fire is detected, a warning blares, giving folks a fixed amount of time to exit before all of the oxygen is immediately sucked out of the stack.
Thus stopping the fire in its tracks. And any remaining human occupants.

What's interesting is this manuscript is already 100 pages longer than Preview Harvey but has, at this point, 30,000 less words. That's because Preview Harvey never shuts up. This book has a lot of dialogue sections and those don't have nearly the number of words.

That is interesting.

The meeting went very well and will result in several projects over the next couple of years, fun projects.

Fun is good. Congratulations!

A stained glass desk! Pretty, but probably not very practical.



That is beautiful...and definitely not one for tap dancing on! ;D

Since it is normally the plastic hood that breaks first on these, vs the heating base, we ordered the same model.

And that DR GEORGE's Medea may have been pixilated.

So, after finding out that the channels were pixelated, I looked and NOTHING was showing in my recorded programs section on my DVR! :o

I figured that maybe, like the pixelated channels, it just needed time to reset, so I waited.

I spot checked the two operas and The Hours looked pretty good, but Medea did seem to have moments of pixelation, but very little, that I noticed, so I won't worry about it, since it's just for myself.

I started to record Medea onto my computer, and will continue to record it in chunks until video files for both programs are on my computer.

The plan is to make sure that the finished video files look good, then I can delete everything on both DVRs, then turn them in to Comcast and cancel TV and just have Internet.

I really haven't been watching any TV, and what I have has either been online (like on PBS's website) or today's topic of the day, YouTube, or DVDs/Blu-rays from the library.
