１１月１日金曜日
曇り晴れ。それでも布団を干した。細君が生協から戻ったのと入れ替わりに生協へ行きヨーグルト、ミルクなど自用の品を買う。帰り道、八起の信号のところでバイクに乗った２号棟の猫婆さんに出会い、しばし歓談。今は白猫、茶トラ、それにクロちゃんの面倒を見ている由。「１号棟のおにいさんが、エサをあげなくなったのかしら、クロちゃんも毎日来ますのよ。」とのこと。クロちゃんも九歳になるという。「猫に優しくしてあげていれば、きっと護ってくれますわよ。あの子たち(亡くなったサンちゃんやフジちゃんのこと)もきっと見守ってくれていますから」と猫好き同士盛り上った。
帰宅して、昼飯を温め、布団を取り込む。
昼飯喰って、一息入れて、早めに散歩に出かけた。ワカちゃんの日溜まりに行くが不在。さくら通り、教会、司、裏通りと歩いて「ときわ食堂」に入る。先客1名、爺さん。後から若夫婦と子供1人。アジサシの札がかかっていたので頼んだら、なし。で、ハムエッグスに致した。大工を入れて入口脇の部屋を改装するらしい。なんだかんだと客の入りでこぼしているが、悪くはないのだろう。客は年寄りばかりだから高齢者施設並に手すりを付けたりするそうだ。
帰りは曳舟川を下り、お稲荷さんにお詣りし、二十円献納し、今でもいいです、とポックリをお願いした。コンちゃんは塀際で横になっていたが起き上がり、大あくびしてから祠に来て正座した。食べる気があるようなのでマグロ風味を開封致す。完食。食べたら、何の愛想もなく車の下にもぐり込んでしまった。そういう性格の猫なんだ。
月初めなので隣の蓮光寺の掲示板を一撮したが、やる気があるのか？と疑ってしまうようなお言葉である。

で、蓮光寺通りから、新道を渡って二丁目に入りクロちゃんを訪ねた。呼ぶとすぐに草むらから出てきて足に絡みつく。モフモフ、カキカキのあとカツオ風味を召し上がって頂く。食後も離れず、一緒に路地の出口まで歩き、サヨナラする。
そこから再度ワカちゃんのところへ行ってみたが不在。陽当たりのいい時だけ来るのだろう。
帰宅して鶏を焼き、カボチャをレンチンする。カボチャも一切れ二切れなら旨く思うが山盛りにされたら食いたくなくなる。分かっているのかな？

Are some soaps better than others?
https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/w3cszv5y
Advice and corrections are appreciated.

We followed the careful recipe here. But when the people first learned to do this or a version of this. I asked chemist and historian Professional Seth Rasmussen of North Dakota State University in the US.
0716
So that the earliest soap evidence that we have comes from a Mesopotamian tablet dated to about 2200 BCE and then later recipes can also be found in both Egyptian and Roman documents.
0728
This is people writing about ???(1)??? itself.
0732
Right. One problem was material like soap, it's an organic compound which means biodegradable, and so the likelihood of finding a sample today, soap made in the. you know, the third millennium BEC is highly unlikely. In addition, if you try to analyze archaeological samples, and you think you might have found soap, the likelihood is that that soap was not originally soap but there was some organic residue that overtime has saponified and turned into the soap
0804
I love the idea that something might have turned into soap over thousands of years.
0809
Yeh, in Egyptian mummies, at one point they thought that they had detected soap, but they ultimately realized that it was a reaction overtime of soda on the mummies ???(1)??? fat in the body that was generating ???(2)???. Henceforth the consequences were primarily have to rely on written historical records.
0826
So there is early ???(1)??? recipes. What do we know about them?
0831
We know exactly what was used to make these soaps, typically a combination of potash, sometimes soda, with an oil of some sort. Potash and soda ???(1)??? can be isolated from plant ash and so most wood ash was primary potash.
0850
Do you know, how on earth, we, as a species, first discovered that if you mix the remains of fire and fat, then you get something like a decent cleaning agent, because both of those things are the opposite.
0904
Right. So, we don't know for sure. What we know is things like potash and soda were used by themselves as cleaning agents. So lots ot early cleaning agent were abrasive since those were sand or ash, and so if you used potash as your abrasive and you were cleaning something which was particularly greasy, then that would produce a soap in ???(1)??? process. And so this would feel slipperly and from that initial observation, people could then, through trial and error, ???(2)???
with amount of fat and amount of potash, ???(3)??? ultimately make that a better liquid soap.
0944
???(1)??? nowadays whether soap technologies really moved on that much.
0949
So, in terms with chemical structure of the soap molecule itself, they are going to be essentially identical to what we use today, depending upon the specific oil that we are using. The biggest difference is that the earliest soaps used potash or soda,
where most modern soaps would use caustic soda or lye, which is much stronger base. Those weaker bases were not effective in saponification and so the soaps would not have been as effective just because there was less soap in the solution. But general chemical structures can be the same.
