do we really know the amount of hydrogen in the sun?

or how fast it's being burned?

someone may discover that past measurements were inaccurate

give or take a few million years could be give of take a few billion years, and then why worry?
I think we know with pretty good accuracy those things, and I doubt it ever is revised by anything of significance, but it's possible.

Perhaps a better model would be predicting the speed of a ball at impact when dropped from a height of X meters.

Temp of 39 when I took the dog for a walk this morning. Even had frost on the lawns, cars, and roofs. 

We've had some rain here, which is pissing me off. My driving range is designed to be a runoff reservoir for rain before it is pumped into a creek and drains into the ocean. Which means that every time it rains the range is closed ~3 days to dry out before the tractor can come around and pick up golf balls. The last rain was overnight Sunday, so it's closed today and probably tomorrow, and then there's rain in the forecast for Thurs/Fri.

that is bothersome

8 inches of snow here closes down the range, if it were open this month

Gorgeous day here, the wife and I had breakfast at a sidewalk cafe.  66°F right now.

39 and drizzling is stupid.  I need to move further south.
