More Land Rovers
I found what must be the largest collection of vintage Land Rovers in mid-Missouri. (The owner prefers to remain anonymous) His shop(s) is filled with Land Rovers waiting to be restored and while he identified the model and year of each truck, I was so mesmerized I didn’t take notes. In addition to Land Rovers he had a 1970-something Rolls Royce Silver Shadow. I hope he invites me back (when it’s warmer) so I can get a bit more info on these beauties. [middleton]

What is time to the brain?
David Eagleman at the FQXi SETTING TIME ARIGHT conference (2011), an interdisciplinary meeting investigating the nature of time.
My favorite line from his talk: “We are moving creatures that run on batteries.”
1997 BBC interview with William Gibson
“I think the only appropriate response (to the power of technology) is profound ambivalence.”
Neuromancer was published on July 1, 1984, five months after the introduction of the first Macintosh (January 24).
Why the Land Rover Defender is so expensive in the US
“Used examples of the North American Spec (NAS) Defender can cost between $70,000 and $150,000 while the same car in Europe can be had for as little as $10,000.” (CARSCOOPS)
When I started lusting for a Land Rover it was the Defender the turned my crank. I was completely unaware of the Series Rovers but SO glad I got nudged in that direction.
