egg|laptop|egg: ...did I mention that somewhere along the line we switched to cooling our sensor to -30 C if possible?
* raptop
suspects so
<WeylandsWings>
raptop: i could supply the rocket
<egg|laptop|egg>
raptop: nice
<egg|laptop|egg>
here that is possible only if it is freezing
<egg|laptop|egg>
and that can mean icepacks to take the darks :-p
<raptop>
WeylandsWings: :D
<raptop>
egg|laptop|egg: consider: dry ice
<WeylandsWings>

raptop: little cups
<WeylandsWings>
unless you have one of the cooler laser models
<raptop>
WeylandsWings: well, yes. I was just expecting something higher than 6 mph, so maybe I'm not understanding the averaging process
<WeylandsWings>
look up the results from your nearest NOAA or Wunderground station
<WeylandsWings>
see if you are close
<raptop>
Yeah, NOAA says 14 mph
<WeylandsWings>
then i question your wind speed measuring device
<raptop>
I just have a webpage with graphs. I'm fairly certain of what building it's on, but beyond that...

Well, I think the clouds are thining?
<raptop>
...or not
<raptop>
Hrm, NOAA is using IAD weather. Which is far enough that the wind might be a bit different
<WeylandsWings>
you can change to other sites, i just grabbed those because they were close to GMU
<raptop>
Oh, hey. Stars are visible
