Having slept on it, I think I've figured this one out. The straight line is the floor. The wavy lines above that are water on the floor. The exclamation mark indicates that a quest is available. The person is a break dancer. Thus, this is a marker letting you know that something related to the breakdancing on wet floors quest can be done here.
New Ethiopian coffee is now available to buy through the web site. https://wilsonscoffee.com/products/ethiopia.html
Right now orders aren't likely to ship until Tuesday due to Labor Day and maybe not until Wednesday depending on what the roasting schedule looks like since I'll want to roast fresh for orders after being closed a couple days.
I try to taste well outside the range that I expect I'll want to sell a coffee first because sometimes you find the unexpected, but also because when you find things like that dark blender, maybe it's not something you need for a product right now, but I've got hopefully a several months supply of the coffee and if needs change, that's another trick I can keep on hand to pull out if it's needed.
Matched cup 5 on the production roaster perfectly and and currently enjoying a drip brewed pot of that. Will try to get that up on the web site and available to buy later today. Same price as the previous Ethiopian coffee.
Test batch of the new Ethiopian coffee turned out delicious. Yesterday I was tasting different roast levels on the cupping table. The first 5 cups (from about 2/5 to 4/5 between cracks) smelled like what I wanted and there was a clear progression where as I went through that range the coffee got sweeter and crisper, then (still pre-2C) it just went flat until it started to get toward the darker side where if it weren't so expensive it would be a nice dark blender.

Last night my father was doing the best I've seen him since he went into the hospital. Glad I could see him while he wasn't completely miserable. He had a lot of visitors yesterday. While I was there my alderman and the mayor came out. Apparently yesterday was Wilson's Coffee & Tea Day by mayoral proclamation.
Zeppelins
I think we should bring back zeppelins to replace aeroplanes. Hear me out...
• Uses hydrogen for lift, which can easily be produced by electrolysing water using photovoltaic energy
• Can be driven by electric motors, which are much more efficient than any combustion engine
• Lots of area for thin film solar panels to power them
• Can be designed in ways to prevent potential Hindenburg-like incidents
• Air travel without huge CO2 emissions
• Quieter and less hazardous to birds
It's been about three years since I did a new video in that series. I'm very selective with which coffees I choose for that. It has to be something where I think the product development process is informative in a way that I haven't covered previously in the series.
