There are many, many minds wondering what specific chemical factors need to exist for life to exist. I wonder, on a night like tonight, so breezy, so cool, so moonlit, with the satellite almost full, if it's possible for life, sentient life, the kind that makes music, paeons to the universe, to exist without some form of moon, letting us know that the sun isn't gone - just around the corner, visiting the neighbors, on the otherside of the globe. Tonight, as fate and chance would have it, I watched a thought completely disappear, just as I was about to write it in my Visor. I haven't the slightest clue what it was. Nothing terribly weighty, just a notion, just a thought, something I wanted to capture, to expound on later. But watching it go, watching its active state get bounced out of orbit, was enough to make the thought lost worth its while. 12:47:10 AM
