080709-N-7883G-036 PACIFIC OCEAN (July 9, 2008) Aerographer's Mate 2nd Class Brianna Frazier, left, of Honolulu, and Aerographer's Mate 2nd Class Kristopher Rodriguez, of Baltimore, release a weather balloon from the fantail of the aircraft carrier USS Kitty Hawk (CV 63). The radiosonde, a radio transmitter attached to the balloon, has sensors that measures meteorological variables such as wind, temperature, dew point and humidity, sending this information to the observing station.

I'm feeling more comfortable, confident even, that this stuff I am remembering is true. There is still something I am missing though. I suspect that it is something I have to figure out, to remember, to recognize, on my own. It is something I will know when I see. For a while, sometime ago, I was thinking to myself something about how this wasn't over til "the bat lady sings," but I don't know what that means precisely, other than a variation of the well-known phrase. I feel the answer is somewhere in my memory, if I could just grasp it.
