April 23, 20179 yr Watching TED is one of my guilty pleasures. To me, stuff like this is far more interesting than anything on network tv, and fortunately for me I can watch it on Youtube (popcorn optional) and not spark a television control confrontation with other family members, who find this sort of stuff about as interesting as watching liver slide down a wall.

April 24, 20179 yr Moderator I think the first example of the twin prop "flying wing" was the most impressive, with the "tiny fireflies" taking a close second place. Fr. Bill AOPA Member: 07141481 AARP Member: 3209010556 Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator

The fireflies are what made me smile. I was thinking about all the fantasy novels i've read that described some version of pixies or fairies dancing in some moonlit glade, and how that always invoked in me a sort wonder and a sense of "If only". But if fact, were already living in a time our ancestors would label magical, with amazing, wonderful things surrounding us on every side. And if there are no fairies, then we can create them to dance for us. Sometimes we forget, but occasionally we are reminded. And some muggles never are. (poor things) We are all connected.....
