Wow - cool videos and "<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; ">The Story of Mel" is superb - never seen that before. Thanks for posting. One of these days I'll have to actually make it to a LLUG meeting as I haven't been able to yet so not met any of you folks - sounds like you all have some interesting banter in t'pub.</span><div>

would post:<br>

Firstly, The Story of Mel, from the Jargon File (nee Hacker's<br>
Dictionary). This is a brilliant story from Back In The Day of<br>
computing:<br>

This is an amazing video of, not a 4-dimensional milling machine but a<br>
*5*-dimensional one:<br>

And while I'm at it, this is a random cool video composed of shots from<br>
the Cassini spacecraft orbiting Saturn:<br>
