iPod iChing - pulsars hi or lo?

It is a blue friday, somewhere, and we precognitively ask the Mighty iPod One as topical question of stellar importance, remembering that we have the reduced traveling set...

So, oh mighty iPod One: what is the deal with pulsars in globular clusters? Are they high mass single progenitors with anomalous cooling, or are they low mass electron capture supernovae descendants, formed in intermediate mass binaries?

Whoosh goes the randomizer.
Whoosh.

Hm, well it starts well; I gather the key piece of info came in 1984, and it all comes back to California somehow...

Hm, ok we know about recycling so the sleep theme fits.
But the Outcome - small, blue? I think we have a winner!

As always, the Key as explained by Sean

Good thing that iPod iChing got the same answer as the Oracle you consulted earlier this week. Otherwise we'd have had to prostrate ourselves before the gods of the TAC and begged for the blessings of actual data.
