@JamesF0790 Yes, James. My point exactly. Obviously, if you watch them all as they come out, you don't need them to tell you which one was last, do you? 🤣😂

There's a temple in Nara said to be the oldest continually used building in the world: they've been holding prayers there every day for fourteen hundred years. They've replaced every board and tile in the entire building from time to time -- but of course it's still the same temple. They could still be flying the same B-52s in 1400 years (and with brilliant successes like the B-1 around they probably will be) on the Nara principle. As long as they don't get on the wrong side of the Vietnamese, that is... . * * * On the other hand, there are 76 B-52s "remaining," which I guess doesn't count the ones they can pull out of the boneyard, as they have apparently been doing. Out of 744 planes that have been in service, this is called "standing the test of time" -- if you don't call it an 89% failure rate, that is.

"In the last video" has no meaning in YouTube world. You made them sequentially but they come at us in random order unless you set up a linear-temporal ordering somewhere.
