Friday Link Salad
Mar. 5th, 2010 09:25 amIt's Friday, so it's link salad time.
1) My friend Ann Totusek is going on a medical mission to Haiti, March 20 to 28. She's by no means a wealthy person, and she's put up a link for people to chip in. She's good people, and it's a good cause, so I encourage you to click and give.
2) The writer Cat Valente recently read a novel set in the old Soviet Union. To say that She Is Not Impressed is an understatement. There's some nuclear-grade snark there, folks - click on through.
3) Presentedwithout with comment: An Illustrated Guide to the Latest Climate Science. Remember, even if you don't believe in global warming, reducing our dependence on foreign oil and lowering energy consumption are Good Things in and of themselves.
4) Today is International Air Shaft Day, celebrating Hollywood's air shaft, which is "accessible with a makeshift screwdriver or simple banging with a palm, vented large enough to enter and exit, at least roomy enough to crawl through, sturdy enough to take an adult male human’s weight throughout its length, and thoughtfully sound baffled so as not to disturb occupants as its user traipses along its metal length from place to place."
