"I cannot believe that the purpose of life is to be happy. I think the purpose of life is to be useful, to be responsible, to be compassionate. It is, above all, to matter: to count, to stand for something, to have made some difference that you have lived at all"    Leo Rosten

    Happy Anniversary Concorde

    Monday March 2nd was the 40th Anniversary since the first flight of the Concorde in 1969. What a beautiful bird. It's a shame I never got to see her fly on her..or for that matter even see her fly.

    You know.... it's such a shame that in this day and age....we are not limited by technology...we are limited by money. The technology is already there! In the 60's we were going to the moon, flying at supersonic speed, developing planes like the Concorde and the 747.

    Imagine what we could do now...image the advances we would make.....if money wasn't the limiter. It's a sad world that we have the knowledge, we have the power...but we are held back by such a trivial thing like as money.

    A tribute to the Concorde.
