You, sir, are MEAN!

Nah...just pragmatic.

Notfernothin', and I know I'm probably in the minority here, but I find Tyson to be an incredible colossal bore. Open up the phones already.

Elon Musk is 44 years old. Evan Williams founder of Twitter is 43.

Talk space, damnit. This is why I don't get my hopes up anymore.

The Big Bang Theory is a horrible, horrible TV show. Then again, 90% of TV is.

Here's a good site for the 12 missile wing of Atlas missiles. The Champlain and AuSable ones were the ones I walked around.

Anyone else lose the feed? Tried the TuneIn app and the pop up.

Pop up has been fine here except for a small repeat a while back, like when the Enterprise goes thru a singularity.

Has a scientist on, talks religion and politics. Groan.

It's the old ruse of glossing over personal opinion with a veneer of 'science'. I have a degree in physics therefore you're supposed to accept that my opinions on religion and politics have more merit than yours. Works as long as the audience hasn't heard of epistemology.

Cool! Thanks...

Here are the ones I go exploring to:

http://w3.uwyo.edu/~jimkirk/titan2.html

There is a partially excavated one too that is fascinating! The LCC is an exposed dome of 3 inch thick metal surrounding 6 feet of reinforced concrete...It is owned by the county and they are using the fill for roads...LOL...the fill used to bury the sites were very specific in composition...and very useful when reclaimed...

Bingo.

I mean a neurosurgeon who doesn't know anything about politics thinks he is qualified to be president for crying out loud. I really thought Tyson was going to be a better guest. Hopefully the callers get him back on track because this hasn't been as good as I hoped it would be.

What a wonderful coup for Art.

I was worried when he had that "witch" on

Now we're back to classic Art. Loving the show.
