Steve Eves, I Salute You – (World’s Largest Amateur Rocket)
Having made and launched a few (much smaller) rockets as a kid, I have total respect for this. And also for the name too . . .
A 1/10th-scale model of a NASA Saturn V rocket launched successfully on Saturday, becoming what is thought to be the largest amateur rocket ever to take off and [...]

Festo and the future

Examples of ‘Human’
I’ve blogged before about being human, have been mentioning it a lot on Twitter, have a heap of bookmarks saved under ‘human’ on Delicous and use the (beta) strapline for what I do as ‘web participation for human brands and beings. You could say it was something very close to my heart.
