@bradh716 He was good, but nobody smokes Earl.

Pickin and grinnin. God bless.

@igknotTheGreat Steve has been a professional grade banjo player for more than 30 years. Just for your information.

The fiddler is a genuine madman genius.

@b26marauderpilot He's been that good for a long time, but only in the recent decade has he branched out with albums and collaborations with other musicians.

@dantean I love both versions and heard the Clapton version live at Rich Stadium in Buffalo way back when. That was when Eric was kicking heroin and was on the Heiniken Maintenance Program.

Even the riffs at the fade-out are great.

@CattyCatRanch The greatest tribute that an artist can convey is to say that someone who loves his creation has made it his or her own. It does not diminish, but rather enhances the creator's legend.

@prog828 She don't like shoes.

@pmstamah Absolutely

She is an angel.

Two angels.

Somebody was inspired by the Onion's Front Page Story in the book "Our Dumb Century." Look it up.

@Alucard106 So, not supposed to see them, or natural geological features that somehow resemble something artificial?

@sask523 He is a really good purveyor of hoaxes though. You have to give him the golden shovel award.

@BiggieSmalls11111 Biggie, I have it on tape and have watched it many, many times, starting the week it happened. He rocked him with the first punch, then tagged him with solid shots the rest of the way.

In the temple of Hathor in Dendera, Chris has analyzed and measured incredible precision in the alignments of not just the stupendous columns but of relatively small details of elements in the capitals with each other, across 30-40 yards and more. If a technologically primitive people is building...

@Cobnor2451 I bet they were pissed about having to give up their 14s.

In the Civil War, soldiers who had seen combat said they had "seen the elephant" meaning something completely outside of their entire life's experience. My heart goes out to all combat soldiers who have seen and done things completely outside the experience of the rest of us. God bless.

We were tough, and Charlie and his NVA brethren were tough, and the whole thing was a giant tragedy for both sides.

Three huge problems: 1) in 1974, no matter what time of day or night you do it, you cannot launch a Saturn V rocket without alerting everyone within 20 miles. Press attention follows, secret mission kaput; 2) Who "found" the "found" footage if we never went back to the moon? 3) Interesting that e...

That's amazing stuff, Ben.

@gahrzahk As to the old computer tape, some years back two former NASA employees bought an old McDonald's building, installed one of the last remaining tape reading machines, and converted a lot of those old tapes to newer media. And they did it on their own. The problem of data loss remains huge...

A classic illustration of my saying that our one inexhaustible resource is stupidity. If we could just find a way to run a motor on it.

The U.S. and the Soviets essentially grabbed all the German aerospace and rocket engineers they could at the end of the war, and pretty much split up the pool of talent. Spying was going on the whole time, but each cadre of Germans worked on their respective projects for each country.

It looks exactly like an aborted landing due to missing his marks.

The song was banned by the BBC, which considered it well nigh treasonous, completely not getting it, despite the wonderful and hilariously ironic refrain line, "Don't let's be beastly to the Hun."

@thebeedle You lucky dog.

A voice like hers is given to a soul like hers but once in a generation. What a treasure.
