School is back in session, so check these out.
The Pencil. The late Milton Friedman is one of my favorites.
2005: Dr. Michio Kaku describes the purpose of LISA, scheduled for launch in 2010(?). Woof. This guy’s got some amazing ideas, despite his Berkely ties.
The intelligent Homerbird describes the daily rotation of the earth in easy to understand terms.

Speaking of Dimensions, I caught myself before I posted a 5th Dimension vid, and decided to post Laura Nyro instead since she wrote several of their hits. Because there are so few decent Laura Nyro videos on the Utoobage, here are three of her songs performed by others, including the 5thD.
Blood Sweat & Tears‘ version of “When I Die” from 1970, live in Japan. (Hope someone can take this semi demagnetized video tape and balance out the sound.)
Three Dog Night‘s “Eli’s Comin’.”
I secretly liked Nyro’s version of this song, too.
The Royalettes‘ “Gonna Take A Miracle.” This was not a Nyro song, although she covered the 1965 hit in 1971.
Occasionally I’ve commented on a few of your websites, in response to conjecture and political opinion pieces on government economics, welfare, and socialism. I’m not going to name names; most of ya’ll are blogging friends, and you already know who you are. Most of you already know where I stand, as I don’t hide it very well…
