Tonight, Lucy, Peter and I went to the Rockies-Cubs game at Coors Field. It was a scorcher of an evening: 95 degrees at game time. We melted. The game itself was a bit of blow out - we left in the bottom of the 8th when it was 15 to 1 in favor of the Cubbies. However, Sammy Sosa hit three homers in the game. Very cool! The fans went wild - which was a bit bothersome. There was more cheering for the Cubs than the hometown Rockies. I'm not sure Denver fans know how to be baseball fans. Anyhoo, check out the picture below:

I've just finished Crypto by Steven Levy. A great book on cryptography - Levy gets the history right and does a superb job making an unfathomablycomplex subject accessible and extremely entertaining. His story of Whit Diffie and Hellman and the birth of public key cryptography is compelling - even to the non-geek. And the National Security Agency stories are great stuff. A definite four star rating!
