My Notes June 2025 Week 1

The Livermore Fire Station #6 is home to the longest burning light bulb.

It has been burning at 4 watts 24 hours a day since it was installed in 1901. 

The bulb cost 40 cents in 1901 which is about $13 in today’s money.

The lightbulb was turned off several times due to power outages.

In 2011, they installed a “Bulbcam” to celebrate one million hours burning.

June 1 is National Cancer Survivors’ Day.

There are more than 18 million cancer survivors in the US.

This day also celebrates caregivers, doctors, family and friends of cancer survivors.

This special day also attempts to bring awareness of the need for more cancer research.

The 5-year survival rates for the 20 most common cancers have increased from 50% to 66% since the 1970s.

“To get cold feet” means “to become frightened.”

He got cold feet and didn’t show up at the wedding chapel.

“To get down to business” means “to start working seriously.”

OK everybody, stop goofing off and get down to business.
