timely distraction

I went up to Columbia today to work on the IGM and radiation fields with Schiminovich and then he distracted me with all sorts of crazy stuff he is finding in the GALEX time-stream. GALEX time-tags every photon (and it has one hell of a lot of photons), so it is the best time-domain project in astronomy ever. Almost nothing has been done in that time-stream to date, with some extremely notable exceptions. We talked, wrote code, and planned our exploitation.
