Amen. :'(

"Mr. LaRouche was at the apex of his power in the mid-1980s, when he moved his headquarters to a large rented estate in Northern Virginia, in Round Hill, outside Leesburg. When neighbors wondered aloud why he had turned the estate into an armed camp, rigged with electronic security and patrolled by men with semiautomatic rifles, Mr. LaRouche went on the attack. He said that the Leesburg Garden Club was “a nest of Soviet fellow travelers.”

Do his people still haunt airports?

Apologies to our lovely podcasters.  The Little Rover that Could is kaput. After a scheduled nine month mission that turned into 15 years, Opportunity is now in its final resting place. Rest well little guy. You done good

Last night's C2C was good.  I heard the space guy twice because, at 2 a.m., the downpour was incredibly loud and the flooded courtyard was splashing up a storm.

Incredible that it lasted as long as it did!
Eh, nevermind...

So, that created an echo?
Are we having fun yet?

Isn't that how some Satanists refer to themselves?

Illuminists ekshually, though that's merely a euphemism for the same.

Actor Bruno Ganz has died at age 77.   The internet is a poorer place now.

Sad.  I often would go back to listen to his final reboot, including his final show in which he explained that the business model for podcasting wasn't working out with supporting his staff.

I listened to him on weekends in the late 80s through the early 90s when I spent a lot of time on the road in the Midwest. 

A plane crash couldn't keep him off the air...  Another great one lost.

Eh, nevermind...

This was one of the most memorable calls:
