Often in the night
I hear the voice of my redheaded friend
He's always there
When I visit that room again.
The one with the white round tables, where we last met.
I still remember how my eyes filled
When I saw the message. I didn't have to open it.
If the subject is simply a name
It can only mean one thing.

Red Dwarfs

I was thinking about red dwarf stars.
The second closest star to us is a red dwarf but we can't see it with the naked eye (or see any other red dwarf directly for that matter).
The star is Proxima Centauri, only discovered about 100 years ago. It may have a loose connection with the binary star Alpha Centauri, which to the naked eye seems to be a single star but is actually a pair.
What a marvelous story this is, to my mind. We have gradually increased our visual reach over recent centuries, and now know that very close to us there is a system of three interrelated stars. Imagine what it must be like to live there.
Moreover we now think red dwarfs are the commonest kind of star, at least in our neighborhood. Theory predicts that a small red dwarf will have a lifetime of about 2,000 billion years, and then become a blue dwarf. No-one (human or other) has ever seen one of these blue dwarfs, even through a telescope, because the universe is nothing like old enough for a blue dwarf to have formed.
Our star is a yellow dwarf and won't last very long at all in comparison.
Two Spies and a Paradox

Once upon a time there were two spies, code-named M and N, who worked for rival departments.
By coincidence on one particular day M and N were both assigned to 24-hour surveillance of the email messages sent by a dastardly counterspy X to one of her accomplices Y.
The messages were cunningly encrypted, so the content was unreadable, but it was hoped that monitoring the number of communication would indicate whether or not a crisis was looming and action would need to be taken.
A downward trend during the day would indicate there was no cause for alarm; conversely an upward trend would indicate danger.
M counted the messages sent in each 12-hour period and submitted a report with a graph showing a clear downward trend.
N counted the messages sent in each 8-hour period and submitted a report with a graph showing a clear upward trend.
Yet the equipment used by each spy was perfectly reliable, and they recorded the data accurately. How can this paradox be explained?
