We have three days ahead now sunny and in the 60s, great walking weather.

I do like winters here mostly.

Our kids in France are moving to San Diego, they are on a scouting mission this month for a house, they have four boys.  They seem pretty excited.  My C-bus daughter is moving to Vancouver, BC this year also, so with my step son in SF, we'll have a Pacific presence in the tribe.  That leaves one in Austin and one in Marseille.

They said they would not sell their house in France, something about taxes.  It's a decent house in a tiny village about 50 miles from Paris, probably worth nearly a mil.

Nope, and it's Procter.  The husband is a CIA trained chef, who was a chef briefly and realized it's for the crazy folks.  He works for some insurance company.  I'd guess said company is assisting with the move.  They asked me to get them a room for 13 days in La Jolla but everything was booked for that period.  I got  them something at LAX for the night they arrive.

Germany has to buy power from France, which is ironic indeed.

Scientists say that urine diversion would have huge environmental and public-health benefits if deployed on a large scale around the world. That’s in part because urine is rich in nutrients that, instead of polluting water bodies, could go towards fertilizing crops or feed into industrial processes. According to Simha’s estimates, humans produce enough urine to replace about one-quarter of current nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers worldwide; it also contains potassium and many micronutrients (see ‘What’s in urine’). On top of that, not flushing urine down the drain could save vast amounts of water and reduce some of the strain on ageing and overloaded sewer systems.

So you're saying I need a pot to piss in and a window to throw it out of (into an approved collection receptacle, of course)?
