MSNBC reports that electrical devices in the town of Canneto di Caronia, Sicily have been spontaneously combusting. It's gotten so bad that the entire town had to be evacuated. The power company removed the town from the grid and put it on a generator, until the generator also caught fire.

"Every time some new scientist comes to town, they arrive thinking the whole thing has been invented or that they're going to solve the mystery in two minutes. They've all been wrong." [...] "Someone wrote to us saying the solution was to sacrifice a black goat and collect its blood. At some point, that's going to start looking like a good idea."

Weird.

A Real-Life Hobbit Hole

A Real-Life Hobbit Hole 12/28/2004 05:13 PM

A Maryland couple has plans to build their own Hobbit Hole dwelling, and has set up a website to raise funds for it and to share progress updates.

The floorplan sketch that Rob has provided on his info page doesn't quite follow my interpretation of Tolkien's description of Bilbo Baggins' Hobbit Hole. But even so, it is an interesting project, both from a construction and a funding standpoint.

Anybody want to help me out with some cash for my upcoming kitchen remodel? I'll accept cash, check, money order, or PayPal.

NASA Fired Will Carpenter for writing a short story. "Some kind of harrassment," they said, and since Texas is an at-will employment state, there's not much he can do about it. Is this story a valid means of self-expression or a harrassing glimpse into jilted anger? I've stumbled across more and more news stories about people being fired for writing, and students expelled for writing "dark poetry" in the classroom. How much do you have to keep secret from your classmates and co-workers?
