kevinjh I have no idea what that says! :?


It took me two overlapped 0020 slots to engineer the sequence. Suffice to say that everyone with AS has a connection to it. :)

I will translate it at 2011.1119.0000 PST or 2011.1119.0800 GMT. Some of you with similar special interests will definitely be amused.


Now for the translation:

5`-A-ATG-GCA-AGC-CCT-GAA-AGA-GGA-GAA-CGT-TCG-TAG-...-3`
(Met)-Ala-Ser-Pro-Glu-Arg-Gly-Glu-Arg-Ser-(Ter), which conveniently shortens to (M)ASPERGERS(*)

Now reverse the order of basesto form:
5'-...-G-ATG-CTT-GCA-AGA-GGA-GAA-AGT-CCC-GAA-CGG-TAA-3'
(Met)-Leu-Ala-Arg-Gly-Glu-Ser-Pro-Glu-Arg-(Ter), which conveniently shortens to (M)LARGESPER(*)

You can tell that LARGESPER is an anagram of LASPERGER. Although it is an imperfect anagram as a whole, this is already a very good sequence because only some sequences will allow this.

so in one of our earth years mercury only gets one sunset or...? :?

random- i need a new job.


No,
in one of Mercury's years, Mercury gets 1.5 sunsets
In one of Jupiter's years, Jupiter gets 10445.73 sunsets


actually, I think I screwed up mercury, wikipedia says it rotates a half a turn per rotation around the sun.
arrgh, embarassing....
I hope the others are still right. Now I'm going to need to do all my work over. crap!
I hate being wrong.

a brief update from the lesser fudo..
he lost all his prized posessions, was turfed out by the council and ironically, was moved around a lot.
so, apologies to thewrll, seems i should've sent you all the dvds if only to insure they be used.
alas, such is life. but lo! he yet lives and it could always be worse, though soon perhaps that may not be so..
hope all is fair and unstained on wrongplanet.
i may well report back but at present only 5 more minutes are afforded me. library computers :(
fare thee well, look for me when you see me.

Damn. I just hope you can find some stability soon and get things sorted. Feel free to send me a PM whenever you are online again.

It seems I keep missing you when you're paying your brief visits these days.

One day, while I was in bed, looking up at the stars, I thought to myself, where did the roof go?

it was hot today.
the air conditioning clowns did not show up again to fix my air conditioner.

i was extremely annoyed, but now it is later, and i am tired, and it is cooler, and i have a different set of worries.

i opened the front door to let some cool air air flow through, and in flew a slurry of small moths (not all of the same species (i do not have a fly screen door)).

they are everywhere, and i am starting to think i may have to use the fly spray to stop them flitting into my eyes and nostrils and ears. i know they are all doomed, and i know if i really tried, i could probably save many of their lives.

should i try? why should i interfere? can i just be a spectator to their distress and do nothing about it?

no.

what a hassle!! !! !

Me too.

I am sorry to hear about that B9. That's happened to me before in the heat of the summer so I know what it's like.

If I ask someone to ignore me, and they ignore me, are they paying attention to me?
