VIDEO LINKS from my friend Bill V.,

Bill sent me this:

Hi Bill,

Thanks for the "Bored Engineers" rube goldberg video.  I don't know if you noticed, but when it was over (for me, anyway) there were little thumbnails of maybe a dozen other shenanigans by, I believe, the same crew.  Some were worth watching.

In that (worth watching) category is the little thought experiment video, featuring Neil Degrasse Tyson, in the link below.  Whatever this guy has to say is, to me, worthy of my attention.  Beyond his ideas, he is great showman of an orator, full of grandiloquent gestures, theatrically pregnant pauses and nicely modulated delivery.  And I am always engaged, entertained and enlightened by his messages.




Submitted for your consideration:


If you enjoy that one, here is another that is a poetic, yet powerfully pragmatic plea for reviving our country's "space culture" of the 1960s:


Ken
