If she was a strong swimmer she might have a chance at surviving the waves. And have a great story to tell if she did. Not sure what you can do sitting in a car with a mad bull elephant rolling it over, though.

If they're in the same bag, won't both camera and lens be subject to the same turbulence at the same time? If so, it shouldn't matter whether they're connected or not.

Not that I ever thought about it before. But now that I have, I do feel more comfortable about flying with lenses mounted on my cameras over the past 60 years or so.

Those are indeed some amazing shots, but if you put yourself in harm's way you should not be surprised if you get harmed.

I dunno, won't he have to endure insufferable abuse from other youngsters growing up? I mean, being named Spot but not having any?

Oh it's Global Warming Boiling, all right. (I know, I know, it's -300 degrees F on the surface, but there must be SOMEthing boiling if there's vapor to make clouds, right?) It's just that all the SUVs know to stay on the dark side so we can't see 'em from here. Moved all the oil wells and refineries there, too.

I can't find 'em now, but there is a series of videos out there about making one of these devices with the tools and technology likely to have been available at the estimated time of its manufacture. And there was a companion series about making the tools and accessories that would have been used to make the parts - I found that one even more interesting than the actual making of the parts themselves.

Thanks, TriX, I can see the windows computer in the Mac Finder, and clicking on the Connect button brings up the name and password boxes, but filling them in just gets a shaking box indicating they aren't accepted for the connection. I know they're correct because I just verified the name and reset the password on the windows machine. I normally sign in to the windows machine with a PIN instead of a password, but entering the PIN in the password box doesn't work either.

I don't do enough file transfer work between the two to make it worth the time it would take for me to get the two talking directly. So I'll just stick with the thumb drive. But thanks anyway.

My Macbook Air can see the Mac Mini, which is always on, when the laptop is home. It can connect to the Mini if I enter the Mini password, and then can see all the content of the Mini and all the drives connected to it, and can copy files from there to the laptop. (I don't think I've ever wanted to copy from the laptop to the Mini.) Both are M1 machines running Ventura. I have never been able to connect the Mini to a Win10 box sitting next to it, so I just use the thumb drive method when moving files between Mac and Windows boxes..

I drove across NV in 1968 on the way to my first active duty station in CA. The two lane road was wide enough for a car to pass a semi without crossing the center line. People mostly drove in the middle of the lane, but just moved over if somebody was coming up faster from behind.

Only place I ever drove one of my cars over 100MPH - the smooth and empty road just made it too tempting not to try, if only for a minute or so.

For those of you in southern CA, there is an exquisite 1/6 scale model of a 1932 SJ on permanent display in the Craftsmanship Museum in Carlsbad, CA. (Along with lots of other incredible models.) The straight-8, 32-valve engine ran regularly on a stand at model shows (on propane - gasoline, electricity, air molecules and friction do NOT scale down to 1/6 size, or 1/216 volume), but the propane system couldn't be shrunk and it takes too much energy to start from cold, so it has not run since it was installed in the chassis in 2012.

Craig Libuse, the long time Director of the museum who is shown in the article, was my Air Force roommate in the late '60s.

Just put up more windmills. That'll fix things.

I learned to fly in a Cessna 152, on an AF Base with B-52s and SR-71s. I can relate to #6.

My wife has 'em on all the time. A lot of 'em include the old commercials that ran during the show.

This. The lock doesn't look like it's easily unlockable, so device is probably single use. I'm not a surgeon, but I can't think of many situations where you would use an un-doable clamp in a medical situation other than the umbilical cord.

Some hobby.
