 :P
Huh? C'mon, what it that! Stop it. Christmas is not so far off and you don't want to be off my list ;) You'll need paypal. You see, I'm making a list and checking it from time to time. Going to find out who's been reasonably..
:P  The only thing I want for Christmas is for George Noory to sign up for a brain swap with someone a little more sensitive.

"A timelapse of the Milky Way that was recorded using an equatorial tracking mount over a period of around 3 hours to show Earth's rotation relative to the Milky Way.

I used a Sony a7SII with the Canon 24-70mm f2.8 lens and recorded 1100 10" exposures at a 12-second interval. All the frames were captured at F/2.8 and 16000iso.

Stealing Stolen Art?

Unverified but it would appear the Chinese, either the government or the uber-rich oligarchs and 'capitalists', are stealing art, or stealing their stolen art back; depending on one's perspective.

Apparently there is no more "annoying" thread at EG so I will post here:
1) why is there a protocol that you clap when someone gets a "Daily Double" on Jeopardy!, even fellow contestants. Why clap to celebrate your opponents?

2) On todays Jeopardy! an answer incorrectly mentioned some inventor of "fidgets." I hope Alex corrects this in the future show to point out that Mr.Fidget is the inventor, as can be verified by listening to old Art Bell C2C shows.

I think the socially acceptable thing to do now is to make a tweet assault on Alex, screaming and calling him vile names. I don’t twit, so I don’t know for sure.
Merry Christmas
