If you've been reading my blog posts for a long time, you may have noticed that I posted a lot of theory articles in 2014, but that stream ran gradually thinner and shallower, until now I post less than one a month, and I've left my biggest teasers (the principal component of art and the general evolutionary theory of

The spacesuit worn by Neil Armstrong as part of the first moon-landing is apparently degrading, and the Smithsonian can't afford preserving it on their own.

Yes, that one tiny-tiny mile-stone I'm sure nobody remembers. Not that important, I guess. It's not like we...

So, three of my minor interests are military stuff, the culinary arts, and history.

So I'm tickled pink whenever I find something that's about all three at the same time. Like this dude, 'Steve1989MREinfo.'
