I could come up with something amazing as it is 28 twice, but
New Scientist Issue 2828 has a feature about 'The Secret Life of Pronouns'. Shouldn't that be in a magazine on English?
Uh-oh! Was there nothing interesting in issue 2827?

Time to resurrect this thread after a three-month sabbatical. What better way to do that than looking at the

It seems like squillions of years ago that we last had a moth, so I'm going for the North American
Astronomer Moth Olethreutes astrologana, with a Hodges number of 2837. Here it is found deep in the woods off a path, confronting a small spider.

There's a little bit more on
this YouTube video, I'm pleased to say - it's a clip of the steam locomotive
Royal Hudson 2839. Originally owned by the Canadian Pacific Railway, it was sold to a group of owners in Pennsylvania, USA and briefly used for excursions in 1979-80. It's now in a museum in California.
