strike

The train drivers are on strike again. Deutsche Bahn not only operates intercity and regional trains, they also run the S Bahn in Berlin. Luckily the U Bahn, buses and trams are still going. Also I figured out a new route to work which involves a tram ride. It's a little longer but involves less walking. It's nice to be able to vary modes of transport. I also spotted a bunch of blip opportunities. Usually, I work from home on Fridays. However, today we had a meeting with some people who are looking into extreme environment medicine, ie they are studying physiological changes of astronauts. Needles to say none of us missed the opportunity to meet them in person. They were a really nice bunch as well and were very happy with our offerings.
