Open Forum (1/29-2/2)

As sometimes happens, your blog host forgot to start up a new "Open Forum" this week. That tends to push off-topic discussions into the other stories.

So here goes – no flashy intro this time. Just a pic of MBC's coverage area from space. The "A" tag points to Ercole's.

As always, please use this week's "Open Forum" thread for news clips, off-topic questions & discussions of (virtually) any nature. Keep it clean.
