A robotic fish is seen in a tank at the London Aquarium in this October 6th, 2005 handout photo made available March 20th, 2009. Robot fish developed by British scientists are to be released into the sea off north Spain to detect pollution. The carp shaped robots, costing £20,000 ($29,000) apiece, mimic the movement of real fish and are equipped with chemical sensors to sniff out potentially hazardous pollutants, such as leaks from vessels or underwater pipelines. The robots to be used are bigger than those which were seen at the London Aquarium and they measure 1.5 meters (nearly 5 feet) long -- roughly the size of a seal.
#CPAP I got a call from the medical supply folks around 9 a.m. yesterday and went to see them at 10:00 to get my breathing machine. Tracey worked late so she helped me put the thing together and hook it up just before she left for work at noon.
I was looking forward to a nice afternoon nap but that didn’t work out. The machine has a humidifier to moisten the air and the darn reservoir leaked and made a huge mess. No nap. I took a scooter ride later and got the durned thing replaced.
So last night was my first full night of sleep with this machine and I really did sleep. I slept so good I feel like I was run over by a train! I am going to have to make some changes in the way I sleep because I hardly moved my position and got all stiff from laying in one spot for so long. I feel good otherwise; we shall see if I start falling asleep later today.

Ben got home safe and sound yesterday so I guess the health epidemic in #Watson may soon subside. He sounded pretty happy about his visit, as always, and was excited to be home too.

Tracey is going to be disappointed. She had planned on riding her scooter to work today, but it is raining again. I know we are supposed to get rain in the Spring but I am ready for a couple days of sunshine.
