The street-lamp sputtered / the street-lamp muttered

Got bored; started coding. One patch merged in Evince no problem. Another patch was rejected for reasons that became obvious once I read some more of the code. Revised version of that patch is still sitting in bugzilla, so it may have been implicitly refused. I still can't get anyone to respond to this patch for NetworkManager, although it's only a one-liner and obviously correct. Overall I'm 1 for 3 this week, but at least I've done something. Update: NetworkManager patch committed. 2/3.

Went to an air show at willow run airport. About eight B-17's, a few B-24's, two A-10's, and a bunch of other random planes. Walked, err, crawled through the inside of a B-17, interesting stuff. Kept reminding me of Catch-22.

Oh, and apparently there's a meteor shower going on around now. The Perseids appear to emanate from the constellation Perseus, which rises in the north-east around 11pm. Cleveland-based readers can expect a rise time about 20-minutes earlier. The peak meteor rate is expected to be about 45 per hour.

The street light outside my house went out.
