A while back Amos posted some tips about living in space. One of those is exercising—muscles atrophy in low-g much faster than on a proper planet, and we don't all want to turn into noodles. Most of you probably don't know anything about resistance training in space, though, so that's where I come in. If anyone wants a trainer, drop me a line, and if any of you want to learn self-defense or how to throw a solid punch, I can help with that, too. Unfortunately I don't have a gun, so I can't help anyone there.

I've connected the hydroponic garden Haru Okumura has set up to the air filtration system, but there aren't nearly enough plants yet to keep the system going if there's a failure with whatever filters they're using. ( whoever "they" is. )

That's all I wanted to say.
