Cool Stuff on Other Sites
In the course of our various online travels, we sometimes run across stuff that's cool enough that we want to share it with folks here, and which wouldn't exactly work to drag here wholesale. Quite often we can address this by posting links in relevant topics, but sometimes there isn't one.
So this is the place to post links to such items.

Thanks.
is there some issue with installing it?
Since the website redesign, none of the audio works for me. Flypaper and the old way of listening to the GD Hour with windows media player worked great. I am distraught.

... but cool. I received this link from a good friend a week or so ago. I think the original article appeared in the SF Gate ("Dead Man Talking" March 21 by Joel Selvin) but I'm not certain. I had never heard this story before.

(full disclosure, with one of my other hats on I'm working on this project)
Over on the Facebook page for the Dead Letters book, Steven Marcus and various folks from the GDTS office are telling tales from the old days. The time the FBI came to the post office and took away all the envelopes because they were convinced Drug Dealing Through The Mail was happening. Etc. Come on down and check it out. Ask questions. Maybe even help us identify mystery artists!
My wife found this animated video to Dylan's Little Drummer Boy on Amazon. If you haven't heard his Christmas CD yet, it's good, & all proceeds in the U.S. go to the charity Feeding America.
