Dear Friends,
When last we heard of it, the noble albatross was being used by Barney to
describe Gomer dating Lydia:
"There he'll come, dragging that albatross behind him."
Today we learn that this mighty bird can be used to help monitor the world's
climate. A team from the University of California (Of All Places) Santa Cruz
is attaching small data loggers to the birds that will be able
to measure sea surface temperatures across the North Pacific in far greater
detail than satellites.
Lydia ain't surprised. She never once worried about being compared to the
albatross.
She don't mind the albatross; it's the vulture she hates and the raven; the
albatross she don't mind. But she hates the vulture.
