Fairly certain what they actually despise is actually Pete Hegseth. All that ridiculous "supremacist" garbage from him the USA military already knows about, from what I have read. Get over yourself. You're a douchebag and dishonor to the USA military, in my opinion as a provable veteran of the US Navy.

40th President of the United States: 1981 ‐ 1989
Radio Address to the Nation on Free and Fair Trade
September 05, 1987
My fellow Americans:
I hope all of you are enjoying this Labor Day weekend, a time for family outings, backyard barbecues, and a time of appreciation for the working people of America. It was back in 1882 when Peter McGuire, the son of Irish immigrants and founder of the Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners, first came up with the idea of setting a day aside to honor the laboring people of our country. On September 5th of that year, 1882, the first Labor Day celebration took place in New York City. By 1894 it had spread throughout the country and was proclaimed a Federal holiday by an act of Congress.
American working men and women have much of which to be proud. Our democracy is based on their good sense and commitment to liberty. It was the hard work and skill of working people that turned a vast American wilderness into the world's most powerful economy. Our working people are still the most productive on the planet. I've always believed that, given the tools and equipment they need and on a level playing field, American workers can outcompete and beat the pants off anybody, anywhere.
Now, there are those who don't have this same confidence. They fear foreign competition, as is reflected in protectionist trade proposals that float around Washington these days. Well, restricting trade in the long run is bad for everybody, especially for the working people of America. Protecting one domestic industry risks retaliation against another. For example, American agriculture would be dealt a devastating blow if our trading partners shut their markets to our farm products in retaliation to American protectionism.
Trade and commerce are the lifeblood of job creation. The flow of goods and services between countries and peoples is a stimulus to growth and prosperity. This isn't a time for us to be afraid, to be erecting barriers, or to be trying to shut out the world. Instead, we should be working to open markets, to increase our productivity, and to meet the competition head-on. And don't let anyone tell you we can't do it. Last year manufacturing productivity in the United States jumped by 3.5 percent, the biggest increase of any major industrialized nation.
We've been witnessing fundamental changes throughout the width and breadth of our economy. Management and labor have gotten serious. Companies have been restructured, overhead has been cut, costs brought down, quality improved. Impressive investments have been made in technology and computerization. American industry is stepping out in the world again, and this time it's leaner, meaner, and ready for action.

Saudi Arabia and Iran
Q. Mr. President, you said a few minutes ago that you would not allow, you would not permit what happened in Iran several years ago to happen in Saudi Arabia. How would you prevent that? Would you take military intervention if that was necessary to prevent it?
The President. I'm not going to talk about the specifics of how we would do it, except to say that in Iran, I think the United States has to take some responsibility for what happened there with some very shortsighted policies that let a situation come to a boiling point, that there was no need to do that.
But in Saudi Arabia, I just would call to your attention that it's not only the United States, it's the whole Western World. There is no way, as long as Saudi Arabia and the OPEC nations there in the East and Saudi Arabia's the most important provide the bulk of the energy that is needed to turn the wheels of industry in the Western World, there's no way that we could stand by and see that taken over by anyone that would shut off that oil.

Feb 28 (Reuters) - An official from the European Union's naval mission Aspides said on Saturday that vessels have been receiving VHF transmission from Iran's Revolutionary Guards saying "no ship is allowed to pass the Strait of Hormuz". The strait is the world's most vital oil export route, which connects the biggest Gulf oil producers, such as Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq and the United Arab Emirates, with the Gulf of Oman and the Arabian Sea.

"forced to testify"
That scumbag Bill Clinton says over and over "I don't remember" and then gets paid millions of dollars to speak at what I can only consider as 'organized bribery'
A pointless exercise today serving only to get the names on the mainstream-media news of those other scumbag politicians.
Other news today on a continuing topic of that mainstream-media hype:
That ditzy bubblehead tries explaining "A.I."
"abused"
All that means is it is hype and it makes more mistakes than not, as though graphic-processing has not been around now already for decades in the past and now is only simply improvements beyond what existed in the 1980s and earlier and it is certainly not worthy of the hype. Because scumbag salespeople slap an "A.I" on anything these days just because you're imbeciles
You're dumb enough to believe that computer-software is capable of independent-thought. Spoilers alert: it is not.
How the hell is computer-graphics of those prancing ballerinas Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt an "artificial intelligence"
What a bunch of bubbleheads, those dim-wits.
So, it's a big news day
What makes this interesting is that the result of my Search Date variable 03/03/1959 is that it returns a result that is my personal activity and not the easily-programmed variable of the original premiere date of that streaming-video series from Paramount and CBS

Had the content for this note assembled and crafted a few hours ago
And then I could not bring myself to post it
By Friday evening, had decided to wait until after midnight and into Saturday to post my work
Started feeling bad, decided to lie down and try to sleep
Could not sleep
All day I have thought about my blog-post here on my blog from a few days ago, on the 23rd.
Ideas formed and I just picked a day to look at
Midnight passed into first hour of today Saturday, sat down at this desk, the sense of urgency typical of my work had dissipated and I felt no rush to make the post.
On the 23rd, that day I selected became yesterday and then I looked at today's date also.
So I am including it now in this note
The one and only purpose of my blog-posts here on my blog is my quest for the improbable.

Was 3/15/1998 the last day I spent with my wife as her husband, Thomas Ray? I used a similar method to arrive at that date as I did with 6/28/1998. The date 6/28/1998 is when I think I woke up, similar to the first episode of “Quantum Leap” that I read about recently, but cannot actually remember watching, with this new identity.
It could be that 3/14/1998 was our last day together and 3/15/1998 was the day I said goodbye to her, until we meet again, as I went to the facility where I would undergo the medical procedure to consciously suppress my memories and replace them with artificial and symbolic memories.
Parkinson's disease

Parkinson's disease (PD), or simply Parkinson's, is a neurodegenerative disease primarily of the central nervous system
Sigmund Freud
From Wikipedia
Sigmund Freud (born Sigismund Schlomo Freud; 6 May 1856 – 23 September 1939) was an Austrian neurologist and the founder of psychoanalysis, a clinical method for evaluating and treating pathologies arising from conflicts in the psyche through dialogue between patient and psychoanalyst, and the distinctive theory of mind and human agency derived from it.
Death
By mid-September 1939, Freud's cancer of the jaw was causing him increasingly severe pain and had been declared inoperable. The last book he read, Balzac's La Peau de chagrin, prompted reflections on his own increasing frailty. A few days later, he turned to his doctor, friend, and fellow refugee, Max Schur, reminding him that they had previously discussed the terminal stages of his illness: "Schur, you remember our 'contract' not to leave me in the lurch when the time had come. Now it is nothing but torture and makes no sense." When Schur replied that he had not forgotten, Freud said, "I thank you," and then, "Talk it over with Anna, and if she thinks it's right, then make an end of it." Anna Freud wanted to postpone her father's death, but Schur convinced her it was pointless to keep him alive; on 21 and 22 September, he administered doses of morphine that resulted in Freud's death at around 3 a.m. on 23 September 1939. However, discrepancies in the accounts Schur gave of his role in Freud's final hours led to inconsistencies between Freud's main biographers. A revised account proposes that Schur was absent from Freud's deathbed when a third and final dose of morphine was administered by Dr. Josephine Stross, a colleague of Anna Freud, leading to Freud's death at around midnight on 23 September 1939.

[titled by me, Kerry Burgess:] Art thou pale for weariness
I was reading this article yesterday about Dell and it made me think of two things. First, is a theory I had long ago and that theory is that I am caught up in some kind of effort to oust Bill Gates from control of Microsoft. Why I got caught up in it, I do not know, maybe because I already was The Microsoft Candidate. So anyway, the way I read this excerpted section below, along with some clues that were given to me even when I was at Microsoft by someone in the shadows, I suspect there is some friction between Ballmer and Gates.
"People always wonder how well a transition like this will work when the founder is staying very involved," Mr. Ballmer wrote in an e-mail message. But when people work together as well as Mr. Rollins and Mr. Dell do, he added, "it actually helps that the founder is staying involved, because you can continue to draw on each other's strengths." Mr. Ballmer has worked closely with both men, given the pre-eminence of both companies in the personal-computer universe.
As for the second thought this article gave me, that last excerpted sentence reminded me of something that happened while at Microsoft. I described this experience to someone else as the day the Sirius-starlamp dropped from the sky just like in The Truman Show. I was standing up in my desk talking to someone that was standing in the hallway 2 cubicles away. I won't name him here, but I used to sit across from him in my previous cubicle. I was talking happily about a new USB Flash Drive I had. I received it when I was at a conference a short time earlier, it was some kind of Information Worker conference I attended because that is my speciality, creating custom solutions for Microsoft Office applications. So anyway, I was standing there talking about this cool 128MB drive that was small enough to put on your key ring, and then I looked down at my Dell Dimension PC and I said, I don't know why Dell even puts floppy drives in these things anymore. I felt almost like I was dreaming when I read that very same thing in a CNet article the next day. Judging by the date on the article in question, listed below, that conversation at Microsoft must have occured on Feb. 5th. After reading the article, I wondered about who all was standing there listening to me because I assumed one of them must have something to do with it. But I couldn't think of anyone that had those kind of contacts. I had never heard of anyone talking about having that kind of influence. So that reinforced my suspicions there were hidden cameras around me. Just like with Marco in Manchurian Candidate, I could see some hidden camera in some dark, recessed hiding place watching me all the time. And I am convinced it was happening. They just won't admit it because they know it was wrong. And I am convinced even Ballmer knew about it even when I was working there. Then I remember other things from that time, just like in Manchurian Candidate, there was a Rose in my life, and just like Rose, she was named after a flower although it was a very obscure one that I doubt most people ever heard of. There is method of symbolism I like where one object represents another object, but they are very different. Just as one object is very well known, the other object is distinctly unknown and therein is a kind of symmetry that I like. There were other clues that were thrown in there too that were symbolic but not in a symmetrical manner and I don't want to give away more at risk of identifying her. Those were more of what I would call something like substitional symbolism. So anyway, before I get too far off on a tangent....
It was just this very minute, as I researched back to CNet's site to find the article to use as reference for this post, did I notice that the CNet article was published on February 6, 2003. I had not noticed that until now. It is quite the coincidence that I quit Microsoft exactly one year later. That also makes me feel suspicious because I had referenced this article before to other people and I wonder if the date on the original article has since been modified. I just don't know. I suspect they may be doing something like that to deflect attention away from possibly being caught up in all this. After all, they did publish this information. Maybe they published it because Dell told them about it, or maybe the reporter was the person that told Dell about what I said the previous day and then Dell decided to go along with it. So the train of information could have been me at Microsoft to Dell to reporter. Or it could have been from me at Microsoft to reporter to Dell. Or, hell, they could all have been watching The Kerry Channel at the same time, because Everybody Loves Truman. I am living in Bizarro World, I dream of home.

Dell foments floppy's fall
Published: February 6, 2003
The PC maker, which currently ships a floppy with every Dimension desktop, believes that the drive is no longer necessary because of the availability of better storage devices. But it plans to gently nudge customers toward that philosophy. The floppy option on 8250 PCs is the first step. Round Rock, Texas-based Dell plans to offer its $20 USB Memory Key storage device, which holds 16MB of data, in place of the drive for the 1.44MB floppy.
The Dell USB Memory Key uses flash memory and works by plugging into a PC's USB port. When connected, the Dell-branded device appears on a computer's desktop as a removable hard drive, allowing people to drag and drop files for storage or to move them to another computer. When not in use, it fits into a shirt pocket.

I still don't feel that is the day I returned to Earth from my first landing on planet Venus, though. I think that is around the time I did return but it is not the precise date.
The notion keeps lingering in my mind I returned to Earth in May 1974.
The notion also continues to linger in my mind that I left my inter-solar spaceship on the surface of Earth's moon in 1974 and then I rendevoused with it in November 1975.

The Web at 25: Revisiting Tim Berners-Lee's Amazing Proposal
BY HARRY MCCRACKEN MARCH 12, 2014 8:35 AM EDT
On March 12, 1989, British computer scientist Tim Berners-Lee distributed a document to his colleagues at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, in Geneva. His unprepossessing title, "Information Management: A Proposal," indicates that he wasn t trying to change the world. He just knew that CERN had vast quantities of valuable information stored all over the place, and that it would be easier to find if it were all linked together in a way that made it accessible from any computer. So returning to concepts he had started exploring in 1980 during an earlier tour of duty at CERN he recommended creating a networked hypertext system to manage all that knowledge.
The idea floated out there for a while before it became reality, at CERN or anywhere else, but what Berners-Lee was proposing came to be known as the World Wide Web.
Several other early dates in web history matter as much as this one does. On November 12, 1990, for instance, Berners-Lee and a colleague, Robert Cailliau, returned to the idea from the 1989 document with a meatier proposal that coined the name "WorldWideWeb." By December 25, they had the WorldWideWeb software up and running at CERN in its most basic form. On August 6, 1991, people outside of CERN got access to the web as a public Internet service for the first time.
Even then, the web was a text-only service that didn t bear that much resemblance to the one that became a phenomenon a few years later. Marc Andreessen and Eric Bina s NCSA Mosaic, announced on January 23, 1993, made the web fully graphical; once that happened, it started to catch on, fast.

NASA shakes up moon program with new test mission before astronaut lunar landing

By Joey Roulette
WASHINGTON, Feb 27 (Reuters) - NASA added a new mission to its Artemis moon program involving a spacecraft docking test in Earth's orbit before landing its first astronauts on the moon in over half a century, overhauling the flagship U.S. moon effort amid competitive pressure from China.
The new Artemis mission, planned for 2027, is one of many moon program changes the U.S. space agency announced on Friday as China inches closer to its own 2030 crewed moon landing goal, and U.S. safety experts warn more testing is needed before NASA makes its crewed attempt to land on the moon, now planned as Artemis IV in 2028.
NASA also canceled an effort to upgrade its Space Launch System rocket to instead focus on increasing that rocket's production and flight rate, which has been slow relative to newer rockets. The move impacts Boeing's roughly $2 billion contract to build a more powerful SLS upper stage, current plans for which have been canceled.
The new mission allows more practice for NASA before its more ambitious step of landing on the moon, which had long been planned for Artemis III. The agency launched an uncrewed test of SLS and Orion in 2022 and is targeting an April launch of Artemis II, taking four astronauts around the moon and back.
The updated Artemis III mission will involve Orion, with astronauts aboard, demonstrating its ability to dock with one or both of the lunar landers in low-Earth orbit. The process is a crucial juncture in the agency's path to the moon.
From 11/2/1975 ( mission begins - my biological brother Thomas Reagan the civilian and privately financed astronaut in solar system deep space in his privately financed atom-pulse propulsion spaceship this day launched from planet Earth towards planet Mars - 245 days before his strike to divert comet nicknamed "Lucifer", threatening extinction by death and destruction to all life on this planet Earth ) To 2/27/2026 ( Friday ) is 18380 days

The Running Man (1987)
Release Date: 13 November 1987 (USA)
Plot Outline: A wrongly-convicted man must try to survive a public execution gauntlet staged as a TV game show.
from my private journal as Kerry Burgess: 04/06/08 9:46 PM
I look at the career of my wife, actress Phoebe Cates, and think to myself how I directed her career as a study of an audience that has difficulty understanding the difference of fiction and reality. And of course, that is why, according to the movie, the "Linda Barrett" character went to live with her professor of Abnormal Psychology. Takes one to know one, so goes the saying.
I also think of how I planned, as her husband, to direct her career with the future in mind. I knew that years in the future, many of her colleaques in the movie industry, after finding out who her real husband is, other than the public fiction I created to protect our privacy, would look back at her career and recognize the career of an artist and an actress and the wife of a studio executive. A woman with a lot to smile about.
I look at her career and think to myself how her career represents my life after surviving the mission to divert the comet in 1976. I had faced death many times before I left Earth on 11/2/1975 but until the catastrophic damage to my spaceship on 2/22/1976, I had never stared into the face of certain death for so long as I did until my first landing on the Jupiter moon Callisto. After 9 months of watching my oxygen supply run out and knowing that it would run out before I got back to Earth, even though I could have aborted my mission and returned to Earth for repairs and then resume my mission to intercept the comet that was much closer to the Earth by the time I got back to it, my discovery of oxygen on the Jupiter moon Callisto was quite the relief and when I got back to Earth, every day I saw Phoebe and after we got married, I was reminded of how grateful I was to have survived the ordeal and she is life to me and everything that is beautiful in the world. I would look at her every day and think of her as my reward and think to myself that it had been and is all worth it. My last day on Earth before I left on 11/2/1975 was sitting outside with her to watch the sun rise. My concern for her safety was the driving factor in my determination to succeed in my mission to divert the comet in 1976.

J. Edgar Hoover
From Wikipedia
John Edgar Hoover (January 1, 1895 – May 2, 1972) was an American law enforcement administrator who served as the fifth and final director of the Bureau of Investigation (BOI) and the first director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
serving a total of 48 years leading both the BOI and the FBI under eight presidents
Later in life and after his death, Hoover became a controversial figure as evidence of his secretive abuses of power began to surface. He was found to have routinely violated both the FBI's own policies and the very laws which the FBI was charged with enforcing, to have used the FBI to harass and sabotage political dissidents, and to have extensively collected information on officials and private citizens using illegal surveillance, wiretapping, and burglaries. Hoover consequently amassed a great deal of power and was able to intimidate and threaten high-ranking political figures.

Composed in my mind this section opening the note
Changing now that I have reached the scene where she reaches the hospital
Back in year 1986, after 14 months in the fleet, at just over 20 years old, I was already a US Navy Fire Controlman Petty Officer Third Class (FC3) (paygrade E-4 from a scale of E-1 to E-9 for the US Navy) when I started FC/A School at Great Lakes in North Chicago. The vast majority of US Navy enlisted personnel, as I understood it, did not become FC3 until graduating that school. I took the rating exam when I was in the fleet and I was awarded the rating and promotion before I was accepted to the school, having been approved 3 years earlier for the Advanced Electronics Field.
I was assigned to a room in the barracks with three other guys that were straight out of basic training, after completing Basic Electronics and Electricity school, just as I had just finished in Orlando. One of my roommates on base was named Nguyen. Forgot his first name. Everyone pronounced his name as "nue gen". I always remember he told me it was correctly pronounced "when"
I started off this note to make this point:
My blog is over 20 years old now.
It is freely available to anyone that wants to read it
This original-work code-pattern of mine is easy to understand AFTER you read my descriptions of it
Anyone comes along and finds my premise intriguing will find it easy to reproduce AND that is not what this blog-post was intended for me, when I started thinking of this topic a few hours ago
My original intention is to craft this note on the perspective of this day today, 11/09/2025
See, that is what they cannot predict: the day *I* actually view it
So I started working on it from that perspective
Now, because of the scene in the hospital emergency room, I am looking at it from the perspective of both: today and the 7th, it's original debut date

Burying any possible important blog-post on my blog with pointless post by me
"Pointless" being a relative term
That guy this note centers on probably does not think the overall situation is pointless.
Now he's probably having to pack up to find a job somewhere else in the USA.
I make this note because of only one reason: I was compelled to make a random choice that caused me to learn information new to me today
I probably know they probably know I might make this sort of observation
That is another point: the possible illusion - I theorize - of free-will is happening not just to me but to all of you. Where it's leading - if anywhere - is anyone's guess.
Here in Spokane, the tv-news channel I prefer is Channel 2 KREM.
Did not have any real interest in viewing the morning news today and today they inform us that today is the final day of their tv morning weather guy, Thomas Patrick. While back, I made blog-post that focused on his name. I never captured the precise date of his first day at KREM, a detail I have discovered with associations I found interesting with other people that work there, bafflingly
Because - I suspect because they where subjects unaware - I have discovered the birthdates of other people working there and my examination yields more results.
Perhaps it is irony those mainstream-media workers - completely BECAUSE of my work here - are now aware and will not make again that mistake of revealing their personal details to the masses, masses they prey on for their own financial gain
Because of my convenient - completely random - choice to turn on the tv this morning, I learned of a topic becoming an Event Date variable in my original-work
See, my theory is that, while people think they are making choices 100% of their own volition, there is a more sinister implication of their activity.
I use the completely subjective interpretation of my original-work to draw lines on the activities of the strings of their puppet activities.
So, the tv-news morning weather guy is named Thomas Patrick. Today, 02/27/2026, after 7 years working there, is his last day.
I remember a blog-post I made before here in this completely open blog by me and the primary detail from that blog-post forms the first detail I look at again today.
During his final comments, he says something about his career and that he still has 30 years left to work.
Another point to remember: Today was predictable at any point since the calendar was invented.
The Twilight Zone
A Kind of a Stopwatch (1963)
Quotes
Rod Serling - Narrator: Submitted for your approval, or at least your analysis: one Patrick Thomas McNulty, who, at age forty-one, is the biggest bore on Earth. He holds a ten-year record for the greatest number of the most meaningless words ever spewed out during a coffee break. And it's very likely that, as of this moment, he would have gone through life in precisely this manner: a long-winded and self-centered know-it-all whose sole significant, if hardly marketable, talent is for setting the art of conversation back a thousand years... give or take a century. I say he very likely would have, except for something that will soon happen to him. Something that will considerably alter his existence and ours. You think about that now, because this is The Twilight Zone.
Joe: [to McNulty, after all the other patrons have departed en masse] You drive more people out of saloons than Carrie Nation! Here's your beer. Drink it fast. The combination of my business recession, this muggy weather and you is more than I can take in one evening!
Charlie: Joe, let me tell you something. There's an 8-inch TV set in my sister's apartment, it dates back to 1947. She's got five kids, the apartment's a six-floor walk-up and it's *boiling hot*! But there's one thing about that apartment which still gives it the edge on your joint here: *the apartment ain't got McNulty*!

Identification (literature)
From Wikipedia
Identification refers to the automatic, subconscious psychological process in which an individual becomes like or closely associates themselves with another person by adopting one or more of the others' perceived personality traits, physical attributes, or some other aspect of their identity. The concept of identification was founded by psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud in the 1920’s, and has since been expanded on and applied in psychology, social studies, media studies, and literary and film criticism. In literature, identification most often refers to the audience identifying with a fictional character, however it can also be employed as a narrative device whereby one character identifies with another character within the text itself.

The Stand - complete edition, by Stephen King
(from internet transcript)
excerpt, Chapter 29
Stuart Redman was waiting for Elder. He had been waiting for three days—and this evening Elder did not disappoint him.
At just past noon on the twenty-fourth, Elder and two male nurses had come and taken away the television. The nurses had removed it while Elder stood by, holding his revolver (neatly wrapped in a Baggie) on Stu. But by then Stu hadn’t wanted or needed the TV - it was just putting out a lot of confused shit anyway. All he had to do was stand at his barred window and look out at the town on the river below. Like the man on the record said, “You don’t need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows.”

The Time Machine (Heinemann text)/Chapter XI
"The Time Machine" by H. G. Wells (year 1895)
Chapter XI.
'I have already told you of the sickness and confusion that comes with time travelling. And this time I was not seated properly in the saddle, but sideways and in an unstable fashion. For an indefinite time I clung to the machine as it swayed and vibrated, quite unheeding how I went, and when I brought myself to look at the dials again I was amazed to find where I had arrived. One dial records days, and another thousands of days, another millions of days, and another thousands of millions. Now, instead of reversing the levers, I had pulled them over so as to go forward with them, and when I came to look at these indicators I found that the thousands hand was sweeping round as fast as the seconds hand of a watch - into futurity.

Case Files: Nikola Tesla
Dreams to Reality
In Paris, Tesla was referred to a junior engineer position with the Compagnie Continental Edison, the branch of the American company set up to expand Edison’s DC generators and lighting systems. Advancing quickly, Tesla became one of the traveling repairmen sent to work on installations throughout Europe. He continued to be a strange, phobic character and talk enthusiastically about his AC system. He received little attention from colleagues who were too busy expanding the DC system. The company had stunned the public by illuminating the 1881 Paris Electrical Exhibition and was setting up generators to light-restricted areas such as factories. However, the one-mile transmission range for practical DC transmission limited sales to larger installations such as towns and cities.
The German city of Strasburg did purchase an Edison system, but the dedication ceremony for the railroad station lighting was disastrous. Throwing the switch caused an immediate explosion which blew out a wall of the train shed. The German-speaking Tesla was dispatched to deal with the problem. He spent a year doing the repairs and waiting for various levels of bureaucracy to approve the work.
During the slow time of waiting, Tesla was able to convert his dreams to reality. In a rented machine shop, he built the solid version of the dynamo he had preserved in his mind's eye during the previous year. The model worked beautifully. On returning to Paris, Tesla's plan was to collect his Strasburg bonus for start-up funds and find French financial backers as he built his new AC generators and motors.
The bonus did not materialize, either through lack of funds on the Edison company's part or misplaced expectations on Tesla's part. Edison managers advised Tesla to take his dreams and plans and try them out in America. The 28-year-old who had studied, worked, and traveled through much of central Europe set out for the United States.

(from internet transcript)
In Camille's room, she has Caine under hypnosis. His eyes are closed. Young is standing nearby.
WRAY: What do you see?
CAINE: Snow is falling.
(Inside his head, he is standing about a dozen paces away from the rear of the shuttle. The snow has been falling for some time and he has left deep footprints behind him. Wrapped in a blanket, he gazes up at the sky, realising that it doesn't look like it's going to stop snowing any time soon. He lowers his head unhappily and turns back towards the ship.)
CAINE (on Destiny): The shuttle is our only shelter now.
(A couple of blankets have been hung over the doorway and Caine pushes through to where the rest of the crew are wrapped in more blankets and huddled around a tiny fire in a metal bowl. All of them are shuddering.)
CAINE (on Destiny): It's so cold. We lost power days ago.
(He looks around at his friends, who stare back at him as they tremble with the cold. Peter's gaze is more than a little accusing.)
Dr. CAINE (on Destiny): Something vital has broken and none of us know how to fix it.

When the Podcast Lameoids read anything they can hear only their own self. And you're a lameoid. So you can hear only your own lameoid self.

Robert Michael White
From Wikipedia
Robert Michael White (July 6, 1924 – March 17, 2010) (Maj Gen, USAF) was an American electrical engineer, test pilot, fighter pilot, and astronaut. He was one of twelve pilots who flew the North American X-15, an experimental spaceplane jointly operated by the Air Force and NASA. As an engineer, he supervised the design and development of several modern military aircraft.
On July 17, 1962, he flew the X-15 to an altitude above 50 miles, thereby qualifying as an astronaut according to the United States definition of the boundary of space.
On July 17, 1962, Major White flew the X-15 to an altitude of 314,750 feet (59 miles, 96 km). This qualified him for USAF astronaut wings, becoming the first "winged" astronaut, and one of a few who have flown into space without a conventional spacecraft.
Post-test pilot career
He retired from active duty on February 1, 1981.

Kármán line
From Wikipedia
The Kármán line is a conventional definition of the edge of space; it is widely but not universally accepted. The international record-keeping body FAI (Fédération aéronautique internationale) defines the Kármán line at an altitude of 100 kilometres (54 nautical miles; 62 miles; 328,084 feet) above mean sea level.
The FAI uses the term Kármán line to define the boundary between aeronautics and astronautics:
Aeronautics: For FAI purposes, aerial activity, including all air sports, within 100 km of Earth's surface.
Astronautics: For FAI purposes, activity more than 100 km above Earth's surface.

Identification (literature)
From Wikipedia
Identification refers to the automatic, subconscious psychological process in which an individual becomes like or closely associates themselves with another person by adopting one or more of the others' perceived personality traits, physical attributes, or some other aspect of their identity. The concept of identification was founded by psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud in the 1920’s, and has since been expanded on and applied in psychology, social studies, media studies, and literary and film criticism. In literature, identification most often refers to the audience identifying with a fictional character, however it can also be employed as a narrative device whereby one character identifies with another character within the text itself.

Asteroid Apophis set for a makeover
Astronomers name the asteroid that will sweep past Earth in 2029 and suggest how Earth's gravity may alter the space rock.
By Bill Cooke — Published: August 18, 2005

Last month was significant for the asteroid formerly known as 2004 MN4. On July 19, it lost its provisional designation and acquired its permanent number and name. The number, 99942, is the largest yet assigned to an asteroid. The name, which will delight Egyptologists and science-fiction fans alike, is Apophis.
Between July 9 and 11, astronomers Dave Tholen, Fabrizio Bernardi, and Roy Tucker took what are likely the last optical images of the asteroid before 2007. They used the 90-inch Bok Telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory in Arizona. The same team discovered the asteroid last June.
On April 13, 2029, Apophis will pass 22,600 miles (36,350 kilometers) from Earth — so close it skirts the belt of orbiting geosynchronous satellites and will be visible to the unaided eye

Quotes
"Cosplay Maverick": So he did do it right.
Viper: Yeah, he did it right... Is that why you fly the way you do? Trying to prove something? Yeah, your old man did it right. What I'm about to tell you is classified. It could end my career. We were in the worst dogfight I ever dreamed of. There were bogeys like fireflies all over the sky. His F-4 was hit, and he was wounded, but he could've made it back. He stayed in it, saved three planes before he bought it.
"Cosplay Maverick": How come I never heard that before?
Viper: Well, that's not something the State Department tells dependents when the battle occurred over the wrong line on some map.
