You might be sorry, but I'm glad you brought it up...brightened my morning!

Until I saw the TV movie loosely based on this incident ([url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falling_from_the_Sky:_Flight_174[/url]) I had not known about the [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ram_air_turbine[/url]

Since the year 2000 when there was discussion about people who have now lived through 3 millenia I wonder if anyone is tracking by country or as the world as a whole the last of these people....and who will get the claim to fame of being the last one alive.

Once that last person dies it is very unlikely any of us will witness it again 89 years from now in 2100.
