Day 1230

Studied Visual C++ again - it's a struggle. Did more scans; beginning to appreciate the capabilities of that Corel PhotoPaint.

In the afternoon, for some reason looked through my diary for 1989, making some interesting new conclusions. I didn't go on the slide in early October when J chucked me, but much later, about the beginning of November. 'Those who do not understand the past are condemned to relive it'.

S rang up about noon and sent me a 3-page fax about UFOs. In the evening clocked Mir again, twice; had a good look at Hercules and Corona Borealis which I'm trying to learn as summer constellations.
