Mullfoto of the Day
This is a photo of the laptop owned by Mullster Professor E.F. Kiss of Rutgers University. It was recovered from the rubble of the Twin Towers where she had been for a meeting. She's fine.
Catchy Caption of the Day
Actual Caption:
The "Tribute in Light" illuminates the sky over the World Trade Center site in New York City on 11 September 2006.
I tried to get this shot from Park Avenue on Monday night, but I couldn't get to a place where the street lights didn't overwhelm the "Tribute" lights. The partly cloudy sky accounts for the burst of light at the top.
