Around 1980, I was visiting Cape Canaveral, Floridaand was on a tour of the Space Launch Complex there. The tour bus driver took us to the end of the runway, parked the bus and announced that the Space Shuttle was coming in soon, piggybacked on a Boeing 747.
We waited, cameras at the ready. Soon enough the aircraft came in and I was able to take a photo.
It was years before the internet so that photo is probably in some album I canβt locate.π

How the heck did I end up in a Facebook "paste your favorite photos/videos" discussion thread? My address bar does claim I'm still on CP...

you might try dxf to stl to cdr
stl format is an ascii format easy to read (all triangles mostly) very commonly used as an export option.

Some reports say he died.
Others say he's at a hospital in Brazil.
The New Stateman's page for it is 404, as was another outlet I checked.

Wiki says yes. But you know take care, it is only one source: Noam Chomsky - Wikipedia[^]
What the hell, I'm really shure they showed the final date . Opening the link again, it disapeared

I'm on the phone so I'm distracted - but I skimmed the wiki, and did not see it there.

From cache:
Noam Chomsky
Avram Noam Chomsky[a] (December 7, 1928 β June 17, 2024) was an American professor and public intellectual known for his work in linguistics, political activism, and social criticism. Sometimes called "the father of modern linguistics",[b] Chomsky is also a major figure in analytic philosophy and one of the founders of the field of cognitive science. He is a laureate professor of linguistics at the University of Arizona and an institute professor emeritus at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Among the most cited living authors, Chomsky has written more than 150 books on topics such as linguistics, war, and politics. Ideologically, he aligns with anarcho-syndicalism and libertarian socialism.

Seems yet another retraction.
Given all that (the 404s, the edited wiki) I'm thinking there were initial reports he died, but he resurfaced at a hospital in Brazil.

Yep, also in the wiki history very much edits/reverts ...
At the time I edited: The italien version still shows the date: Noam Chomsky - Wikipedia[^]

Thanks. Yeah it was bizarre. I normally don't get taken in by hoax death reports, though I don't think this was that, as I normally do some due diligence using google if it looks like it even might be false.
I thought so here when I first heard about it, so I started looking through google and I was getting hits from reputable news outlets, but when I clicked on a couple I got 404s for those links.
I would expect a retraction so I wasn't entirely sure what happened. The whole thing was bizarre.
