Several years ago as our family was seated around the dinner table things were not all sunshine and roses. Some of our children were engaged in verbally bashing each other. In an effort to change the subject I spoke up, "How about those black holes?" Since then that has been our family code for talking nice.Our mission: To boldly avoid places no man has gone before
"Avoid black holes." That's what an astrophysicist in New York advises, based on a new report by NASA about a black hole that's shooting a jet of deadly radiation at a smaller neighboring galaxy.If this were an episode of "Star Trek," the intrepid crew would get sucked toward certain death in the radiation stream, then find themselves forced to fight their evil doppelgangers from another dimension to get the dilithium crystals they need to escape. In the process, the transporter would fail, the shields would fall to 60 percent as soon as the enemy looked at them, and Capt. Kirk might very well be drugged and then seduced by someone wearing a minimum of clothing. -The Buzz (our local paper, the Everett Herald)
