I like the one with Totoro.

Didn't know Totoro was a pokémon. Oh, well… live and learn…

I have no idea if Microsoft products are any easier to admin now than they were, but you can always check Satanic SysAdmins for light relief.

But who will be first to actually brew in these places?

[Ellen Kuhfeld]

It will be more complicated than gravity. Earth beer, brewed on Earth, tastes different served in an airplane at 35,000 feet. The air in the plane is different -- less moisture and lower pressure, maybe 10% humidity and a mile or more above sea level. Unless you're used to drinking your beer a bit uphill of Denver, that's a big difference. So: what kind of air standards will spacecraft, the Moon, and Mars have?

A big argument for drinking the local beer, wherever you may be.

[Té Rowan]

Reminds me of how the Royal Navy needed a special tea blend that went well with desalinated water.


Hennyways and milwaukyroads, I am sure you folk can find the inspiration for this little ditty without problems:

"LaGuardia Tower, Cactus fifteen-forty-nine.
Mayday, Mayday, Mayday, I'm in an awful bind.
I hit some birds, my engines quit, I gotta turn around.
Can you tell me, gentlemen, where a runway's to be found?"

[Ellen Kuhfeld]

No problem,you're right. And there is a lot of documentation.

[Té Rowan]

Should you want to sing it, it's set to "Wabash Cannonball". It came to my mind after hearing "Teterboro Tower" on Youtube.
