Not a particularly interesting post, but I couldn't find this information on the Internet when I searched, so after figuring it out, I thought I should post my results. If you play TF2, you know that some of the voicemenu lines you can say are accompanied by the character doing some animated move.  Everybody is familiar with the "Thanks" voice line giving a thumbs-up animation, but exactly what voice lines give exactly which animation isn't obvious, and the first person models we play in don't animate when we say it.

I didn't try it on Passtime mode, so I didn...

Since the City of Albuquerque only publishes a daily report of this information but no graph, I started making a Google Spreadsheet graph of it in 2015 (actually in 2013, but that was allergens-only). They take 5 or less readings a week so this is around a year's worth (the last 220 or so readings). I offered the city website a link to one of my graphs a while back, but I guess I have to publish it myself instead.

The Air Quality is on a scale that approximates their warning system.  Usually the only significant things are particulates and Ozone. Some d...
