Watch that Air Car Go!

CNN: 106 mpg 'air car' creates buzz, questions

That article above made me think of a video that I show each year in class about the Air Car:



This is really neat!

Live Earth

I am sick.
Feeling terrible.
Fever.
Sore throat.
Headache.
Aghhhh.

I could not sleep, so I watched what I had recorded on TiVo of Live Earth on the Sundance Channel. Wow. Great music and a tremendous set of concerts all around the world. Watching Metallica right now do "Nothing Else Matters." It is amazing how these songs take on a different meaning when played in front of a backdrop of screens showing pollution, elephants, polar bears, and the signs of global warming.

What is kind of neat about these concerts is that the bands have been added so late in the game that you really have no idea what is coming next.

Also saw great performances by Beastie Boys, Red Hot Chili Peppers. Wow, Wembley stadium looks awesome. MSN announced that more people watched LiveEarth online than any concert in history. That's pretty cool.

I missed this, but wish I hadn't... drummer Roger Taylor of Queen, Chad Smith of the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Taylor Hawkins of Foo Fighters started the London show with "Drums Heard Round the World!"

Great stuff. and a great cause.
