Tesla FTW, by the way

Is it some sort of joke I’m not getting about there not being jetpacks since there have been jetpacks for several years now? (Including one on the commercial market)

Yeah – it’s the Statue Of Liberty, Maggie, not the Eiffel Tower. There were actual photographs of the construction posted somewhere but I can’t find them – really cool stuff.

Personally, I liked the exposed brain on the cover for the article about Wilder Penfield’s discoveries.

Mmmm – braaaaains.
