Cell phones, near the head, were dangerous since the 3G days.

I use speakerphone whenever possible.

Buffet is more of a frugal tightwad. Shrewd business trader.

He is not building rocket ships to Mars.

He got mega rich a little too fast to be normal --- like Gates, Epstein, Pelosi

Buffet and Trump are more believable (even though Buffet is a goddamn liberal).

I would argue that using your logic, we 'fly' submarines under the water.

Small aerodynamic models are often tested in moving water because of the Reynolds number. A vacuum doesn't work.

There is a submarine that "flies down" in the water instead of using ballast.

...and NASA wanted to shut down the LLRV/LLTV program....

WHY would NASA want to do that?

That just didn't make any sense if you were going to do a man guided moon landing.

That was one of the very first simulations written, when ported to a pdp-11 led to the development of Unix

Someone who could fly the Neil Armstrong Challenge

would give it plausibility.
