Today I learned that up around 4000 feet on Mt. Lemmon at Molino Basin, there is only slightly less pollen than there is here in town at about 2700 feet. Colossal Cave Park (3600 feet) was still better than home or Molino Basin, but there was a breeze today, so it wasn't as good as it was yesterday.

In other news, there is an Arizona Competitive Telecommunications Association, and it feels that it's being unnecessarily targeted by a new no-texting-while-driving law. I suppose if people stop buying expensive gadgets solely because they are not allowed to send text messages with them while they drive, I might consider feeling sorry for them. As it is, I might have to accuse them of being a bunch of whiners.
