There's obviously a lot to say about Anthology 4, but I will say this first: Much as I wish we had fewer SDE reruns, I think "Good Night (Take 10 with a guitar part from Take 5)" should be on *every* album. Their 4-part harmonies make life worth living www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4Sd...

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.
The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.
The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.
Why?
It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

Federal employee ethics training is like “you are technically allowed to get a birthday card for your co-worker but why risk it?”
Patel's girlfriend performed at Penn State last weekend. A government jet arrived at State College Regional Airport, according to its FAA registration, with an address listing the FBI HQ. The plane then flew to Nashville, where his girlfriend lives.

Every machine in a Hospital that diagnoses your body without cutting you open is based on a principle of Physics, discovered by a Physicist who had no interest in Medicine.
If you think the world doesn’t need Basic Science, or that somehow Science has failed you, think again.
