This And That

The assistant was saying they've been inundated with donations since Christmas.

Yesterday the crescent Moon rose on a trajectory that took it between Mars and Venus- and it was a sight to see. This evening the Moon's a little fatter and rising to the south of both and it's less of a spectacle but still striking.
