How Do They Knit a Chain-Link Fence?An evening pause: Hat tip Phill Oltmann.
As always, I could use some evening pause suggestions. If you’ve done it before, you know what to do. If you haven’t but wish to submit something, say so in a comment here, but don’t post the link to the suggestion. I will email you for it.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The print edition can be purchased at Amazon or from any other book seller. If you want an autographed copy the price is $60 for the hardback and $45 for the paperback, plus $8 shipping for each. Go here for purchasing details. The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

Worst informative video I have ever viewed. As an engineer, I am appalled.
I liked how they plastic coated it.
We used to paint arrows with a machine very similar.

“A beautiful dramatization of how the master hands of Chevrolet craftsmen form the patterns, tools and dies, and control the huge machinery that fashions the modern car.”
Take a look at AMA with Julie Gautier, one of t he world’s premier free divers. The music is “Rain in my black eyes”, done in the Y40 pool….40 meters deep in Milan.
Its one of my favorites in YouTube.
Very carefully…
I suggest Traffic’s John Barleycorn Must Die. There is a live version on Youtube that is outstanding. I also wonder that if you attempted to post the lyrics on Facebook if they would be blocked as hate speech or other violation of its ‘community standards’
Gary Westfal: Thank you for the suggestion, but you are the second person who apparently didn’t read what I wrote. I specifically asked that people not mention their suggestion here, but to only say they have one. I will email you for the suggestion.
I like the pauses to be a surprise. By describing it here, you make that somewhat difficult.
Interesting video, although I am curious how often human intervention is required in the process, either for maintenance or correcting something that goes wrong.
Are you still seeking evening pause suggestions? If so I’d like to submit something for consideration.
