"What is common to any community is not so much 'shared values' as the fact that members are engaged in the same argument. Communities are held together by what divides them, by the business of threshing out alternative strategies, misunderstandings, conflicting goals, and values." Ulinka Rublack.

Moment of appreciation today to learn that seismologist call seismic records 'waveforms'. Like lines of music, waveforms end in coda. Coda in music are final passages that bring the end. Seismic coda are reverberations from other waves that decay slowly with time. #seismology #music #math #geology

Azaleas in Alabama are blooming. This will unfortunately disrupt their reproductive cycle. A cold dry spell in an otherwise over warm fall tricked them. Other flowering shrubs are behaving similarly (e.g. blueberry) #climatechange #gardening #azaleas
