Dangerous toys. Too much caffeine. Advanced degree in physics. This isn't going anywhere you want to be.

Summer Solstice on Thursday
Just so you don't forget to wear sunscreen, this year's summer solstice is Thursday. The click-of-the-moment will be at 5:07 am CDT, which I fully intend to celebrate by sleeping in for approximately another hour.
Later in the day beginning at 4:30 pm CDT, the BBC will begin their annual shortwave midwinter broadcast to Antartica. You can find some more details, including frequencies, over at The SWLing Post. I plan to celebrate this event by leaving work sometime during the subsequent hour. Were it not for the blasts of RF noise from some as-yet-unlocated source in my neighborhood around that time of day, I'd probably come home early and give it a try.
