  4. Yes - definitely - new terms are needed. The baggage with so many 'terms' are obstructing progress. I have a book suggestion for you - corruption of corporations that and with them lobbying to cheat the public. The Big Myth: How American Business Taught Us to Loathe Government and Love the Free Market - by Naomi Oreskes & Eric M. Conway

  6. Oh, oh, temperature. I do measure it frequently, from just south of the Arctic circle to the Equator (Finland to Singapour). And recently most commonly in the Middle East. And yes - the "weather" report temperatures are 'shaded' within a louvred box called a "screen" these are the white boxes - you often see. However, anecdotally, in a July afternoon around 25N I went from inside surface temperatures of 23C to 35C and 42C in the shade - but also 105C surface temperature on the black block pavers in the full unshaded local road. A few years later on a different site - but not far away we were recording 53C in August. Love it - keep up the good work. Illegitimi non carborundum.

  10. Quiet sarcasm is not always quite good but often quite bad whether or not it is raining on your parade. : )))))) Sorry but the Q3 was just hilarious but clearly a significant problem. Keep taking the tablets and solider on... ... all good stuff so thanks for this channel.

  11. Er, aren't you on vacation [sick leave]... yet we have my 2nd fav battle being nibbled at... but maybe "a change is as good as a rest", but is that really the case? Take it easy...

  12. 10% of convoys mauled, BUT were all conveys equal? See the farce over the Falklands "convoy" with the taskforce 'packing' errors and so Harriers lost. The number of convoys is a nice metric, but tonnage and content... Colingham seems to look into that balance of what came from the conveys. Anything in her book, on the packing/loading balance? You seemed to skip that in details.

  13. Welcome back, and hopefully a little more balanced in efforts, etc.

  16. Oops, "I do videos EVERY Monday at 5pm GMT (depending on season, check for British Summer Time). " 5pm GMT is fixed 5pm BST moves... ... history degree my tell you when the BST arose - just not the math/physics of the solar path, etc., etc.

  18. Criticism - isn't all one direction as in negative. A critique of the German generals' autobio's to take out their biases and "narrow" points of view and their agendas. Market Garden vids are an excellent group and illustriation of this idea... ...

  20. Nice reality... so the idealogy of 'trickle-down economics' is just that faux yellow brick road, like 'expert', as in 'ex' something passed and 'pert' th trickling tap. No? ; ))))) Has the OED accepted your new word - yet? : )))))))))

  30. Market Garden - is excellent... ... not surprised it is still the most popular (along with its follow-ups). A cracking start, to my fav. battle with the Ardennes/Battle of the Bulge - noting both are "para" lead, off that. Anti-yank is fine, they often deserved it... ... just limiting it to say films of WWII then The Great Escape and U-571 come immediately to mind. [ducks : ))) ] At that point of the war, surely, a 1,000 tanks could have been bombed to scrap and there should have been signals analysis or even ULTRA level information for this quantity... ... seems to be too dodgy not to be called into question. The "film" version of some panzers in the woodland edge never adds to a 1,000 tanks, 1,000 troops yes and clearly not going to be militia either... ... And the well done with the clearance of the fog of war paperwork. : ))))) ... ... and nice "education" of snowflakes. Too many creators and reviewers end up by having to deal with unnecessary crap, so thanks for the vids, the discussions and keep producing.

  31. Love it. : )))))

  32. Radios and Market Garden... not so much. : )))) And take a rest - and or make a balanced production program - so 2 big vids and 2 small ones, etc.

  33. Stalingrad - just has expanded too much... so the politics - but with economics. And very happy with the P&E attached to events from WWII - just before and the run up. So say 1930 to 1950. So - the series and subsequent details about say Market Garden was very digestible... Nice review of the complex decision. So thanks for the involvement. Stay safe, have fun, and rock on!

  38. "No one is going to give you the education you need to overthrow them."... I saw that written somewhere! From Hitler's Hangman: The Life of Heydrich by Robert Gerwarth Page 267 ... ... Heydrich's 'educational policy' was very much in line with Himmler's view, articulated in May 1940, that schooling for the local population in the occupied territories should be reduce to 'simple arithmetic up to 500 at most; writing one's name; a doctrine that it is divine law to obey the Germans and to be honest, industrious and good' In February 1942, Heydrich further announced that he intended to 'strike violently' at the heart of Czech teaching establishment, which he saw as the 'training corps of the opposition' and threatened that he would drastically reduce the number of Czech secondary schools. Czech youth, he noted bitterly, had for too long been mislead by its 'thoroughly chauvinistic teachers'. The collaborationist press echoed the view that education was an unnecessary luxury for the majority of the Czech population. On 1 May 1942, Labour Day, the widely circulated paper Ceske slovo commented: "The fact that we have at present 70,000 secondary school pupils is economically unbearable.' Boys in secondary education, the paper argued, should leave school immediately in order to become apprentices and attend professional schools after training. The aim of these measures, as a British Intelligence Report pointedly remarked, was to turn Czech youths 'into a race of slaves which Herrenvolk system requires'.

  42. The "stuck to tanks" comment re the film industry, etc., has some echoes of life. But for much of the pre-Schindler's List era - the camps were known but little spoken of. I was in Germany in the early 70s and also in the early 90s made it to Dachau for a 'tourist' visit. It clearly wasn't a secret... But the connection to other elements of 'western' normal life were interesting, but I bulk at some of the RC was against Nazism... if true then why so much 'help' for the ratlines in getting 'those' criminals out into Catholic countries, etc., etc. Some real and many fictional accounts were common before the likes of the 'deniers' of David Irwin's ilki with films of a mixed nature such as The Scarlet and the Black from 1983... Excellent - make you think vid as normal. Thank you for digging around.

  43. "We" can beat the algorithm... Catch you once your vids return. And sorry for your loss.

  44. Japan - didn't unify, in geographical terms - there was a change in the mode of government, from the Shogunate formed in 1603, but even this just followed the older process of the Shogun usurping the power of the Emporer from the mid-1100s. Unlike say where Italy as a singular country formed from various papal states and other secular states into a 'new' geographical entry... noting that even earlier 'Italians' were seen as separate from 'Romans'. Also, it is sort of in the name - Meiji Restoration... a return to a previous state. Not a formation of a totally new state - although it was totally modernised in the same sweep up... That aside... continue. : ))))) And of course, there could be 'a' like in it for you. Maybe...

  45. "... starts the ball rolling." Yes, i.e. the true date of the start of WWII, nothing to do with Pearl Harbour... or anything like the final and late arrival of the Americas into WWII.

  49. A baby "David Irving" - good call out. Oh and I am sure we can find a decent recipe for babies : )))))) But why "Nigel Askey, a physics graduate from the University of Sussex" down grades himself from a numerical "science"?
