MISTER Crypto: Li-Lac has a shop in Chelsea Market; in the same building, the Oreo was invented (plagiarized, perhaps), and now, upstairs from Li-Lac is YouTube NY. And thus, the circle is complete.

War of All Worlds
Special K: The grandparents of Tom Cruise's kids at the end of War of the Worlds (2005) are played by Gene Barry and Ann Robinson, the two leads of 1953's The War Of The Worlds.
b1-66er: THAT I did not know.
Great trivia.
K: Yes. I just watched it Saturday night and didn't know.
b1: Where'd you stumble across that fact?
Thave a Criterion DVD version of the
original WotW and
I'm pretty sure that fact isn't mentioned in there.

I was merely calling to say hi.
Special K: We were watching Spartacus. Still are - it's 3.5 hours.
b1: Watching the movie, itself, is like a gladiation event.
K: I'm loving it so far. Never saw any part of it before.
b1: Not even IRL?
K: Nuthin.
b1: So THAT'S one way we're different.
K: Seeing Spartacus?
b1: No.
Having parts of your life being like a gladiation event.

b1-67er: While helping out at MPC we did a project for a company developing submersible floats for lobster traps. You send a low frequency pound signal in the water to release the floats. So the fisherman goes out, triggers the floats, they raise to the surface and he retrieves them. It minimizes wale entanglement
It has a knock on benefit. People steeling or raiding your lobster traps is such a big problem fisherman go out just to watch their traps.
