Everyone remembers the pentagons report on climate change, where all climate models told of tens of millions of people looking for water. Here we are.

AMTRAK crashes. Why not automated?

Human error, always. We have driverless cars, why not trains? Switching systems? Seems we could avoid a lot of problems by automating trains.

Justin Timberlake halftime: Best anything ever...

Incrediblishus. Love how he avoided, and actually used the crowd segregation issue that plagued prior shows. He used the entire stadium. Prince tribute, perfect. Boy, can he dance! I wasnt sure what was the opener, with the screens, saying "fake" and "real" ill have to find out. The freaking sets and lights were unreal. The laser screen. Stuff ive never seen.

Awesome. Awesome game too
