Cloudy day, with some breaks in the clouds. The fire situation in Greece is worsening, with the ancient city of Olympia under threat. Enough of fire.
Still quiet on the hurricane front.
Now, how can you see nothing? As in, there is absolutely nothing there. Not matter, not light, nothing at all. And it measures 1 billion lightyears across. You know, the distances you measure in 10 to the power of 24. Well, they've seen 'nothingness'. Have a read.
And I scoffed at the report that air pollution could boost asthma risk. For goodness' sakes, anyone that knows the way asthma develops could have worked that out ages ago. I'm sorry, I was told about that 20 years ago and more.

I saw the frightening images of the fires in Greece last night on the news. I just hope they manage to control them soon. I agree about pollution causing asthma, my son is 30 and he was diagnosed at 4, I was told then that poor air quality made the condition worse.
