Of the 12 men who walked on the moon, six are still alive, the youngest, Charlie Duke is 81. Aldrin, the oldest, is 86. Its becoming less and less likely we'll have someone back on the moon before these men are gone. That is a goddamn

The circus is an affectation of nostalgia held by people that weren't even born when the circus was still a thing. They may have read a book when they were children that was 40 or 50 years old at that time that showed clowns and happy

Very nice. A couple of suggestions: - Add ability to move the gear by shifting its position without rotating - Allow multiple pens - Shift colors randomly for a pen - Add elliptical gears

I've been expecting somebody to point that out. Google is notorious for finding excuses to reject otherwise competent interviewees who happen to be above a certain age. They always hide behind "You're a great candidate, but..

Being an American, I'd put Samuel Clemens up against Wodehouse and, having read both extensively, make it too close to call.

Another of my childhood heroes is gone. I was 8 years old when Glenn went up into space and I still remember the black and white images of the launch, landing, and parades that ensued. I've been obsessed with space and its exploration

I like how, when showing the increasing star size, they show a little piece of the next, bigger, star just to let you know "hey, we're not done yet!". There are big things out there, people.

I don't disagree that a lab isn't necessary if all you want is a cursory overview of the various topics but I'm assuming that the person wanting to learn physics wants a deeper understanding of the concepts. Really know what

Learning physics requires more than simply reading text books. A significant portion of actually understanding the concepts laid out in the book is performing demonstrations and experiments in the lab. In college, we had a 3 hour lab each w

Working in a SCIF isn't so bad when you've got an outside office. I typically spend half my day in each location. I have had days, however, where I go into the SCIF in the morning and don't emerge until its time to go home. F

The first two seasons of Deadwood were exceptional with Ian McShane being the primary reason. Season 3 started to lose something by dwelling too long on the evil George Hearst character. I'm not sure the show could have stood up a com

I read there are tens of thousands of Anazasi sites in the Four Corners area. Mesa Verde and Chaco are obviously two of the largest but there are also small sites like graineries and single family ruins out there waiting to be found. I&#x27

Chaco also has some of the darkest skies in the US. It even as an astronomy program during the summer months with several telescopes people can look through. It is a really amazing place to visit.

Chaco Canyon is a bit older than Mesa Verde. The former started around 850 while the Mesa Verde cliff dwellings began about 1150.

The south rim can be a zoo during peak tourist season but the north rim has 10% of the visitation and it is 2000 feet higher in elevation and much cooler. The canyon views, in my opinion, are even more exquisite. Make the long, difficult tr

Yosemite doesn't usually close except for rare events like flooding. The valley will remain open through the winter. It's just the road over Tioga Pass that closes with the first snow since NPS doesn't plow it. Actually, wint

This brings back a whole raft of pleasant memories. I devoured issues of Popular Electronics while in high school in the early 70s. It was one of the reasons I decided to be an EE. I randomly clicked a couple issues from 1969 to 1973 and wa

What is amazing is the scope of the search that took place, both when the Germen's car was found and, several years later, when the human bones were located. It is gratifying to know there are people in the S&R teams who will devot

Not quite the least visited but close. If you only consider the continental parks, North Cascades and Chaco NHP have fewer visitors. Several of the Alaskan parks also have fewer visitors but they are much harder to get to. Still, its a beau
