Like the general public, I was under the impression that the Enron debacle was caused by a collection of executives who knowingly withheld vital information from their investors. Turns out that wasn’t the case. Everything about their schemes was publicly available, it’s just that there was so much information available that no one bothered to really look and see what they were doing until it was too late. A great article on Enron in “The New Yorker” brought this to my attention.

A pretty amazing astronomy picture of the day from NASA. At first glance, you’ll wonder what this has to do with Astronomy, but if you look closely at the middle of the picture, you’ll notice the Comet McNaught.
