Lightning and Wind Go Well Together!

Mr. DeMartino has switched from History to Science to re-create Benjamin Franklin's famous kite experiment on this day in 1752. Given the man's already-shaky health, this seems like a terrible idea, but it's still probably better than putting up with Kevin.

Today is also Global Wind Day, but I think the globe will take a pass on spending any time with Wind Lane if it can help it. Fortunately, the holiday refers to wind energy rather than the over-sensitive, thin-skinned brother of Jane and Trent.

Finally, it was on this day that something important happened in Angelinhel's story "61501." I'm not going to spoil it; you'll have to read it for yourself to find out.
