No one in Flint is going to forget that the emergency manager appointed by Rick Snyder (R) was the direct cause of the crisis.

So a manual mill and a receiver blank are not? If you wanted to build something like this yourself, this is a better option than a 3d printer.

Glad to see the school has some common sense. The principal and athletic director pushed to keep her on the team. Great classmates as well, learning to make their voice heard.

I saw them setting it up a few weeks ago. Very cool picture of it.

If I'm not mistaken, I think it's Meijer Gardens in Grand Rapids, Michigan

You are correct, I had forgotten about the last experiment with the light shining across a distance. For some reason I thought that the gyroscope was the one that they ended on.

Bob may have been confused about the shape of the Earth, but he was still a person with family and friends. A good thing to remember about all of these people.

The documentary was called "Behind the Curve" and featured Bob Knodel. Unfortunately he passed away this year. https://www.robertsfhsc.com/obituary/RobertBob-Knodel

It looks like you still believed in the theory though. He had a YouTube channel that was devoted to flat Earth conspiracy.

The thing was made 60 years after the war ended. The guy fought against the United States. Never should have been made in the first place. It's a shame that it took so long to correct this mistake.

Apparently the cost was humor

Yep, you send me html, my browser can interpret it any way that I want it to. If I want to ignore all of the image and script tags, I can. I don't need Chrome or even Chromium. As Stallman says, you should know what is running on your system.
