Trading Operas

Gabriel and I traded John Adams' operas. I lent him "Dr. Atomic": he lent me "Nixon in China". They are both so good!

Today, I shared with him small fragments from my rock collection of (mildly radioactive) Trinitite. The entire Trinity Site crater was coated with the greenish glass, formed from molten sand, after the first atomic bomb detonated.

Nuclear power - it is a thing!

China is a thing too. Kathleen Kim is so over-the-top as Chiang Ch'ing!
