People have been attaching cameras to model rockets, model airplanes, model helicopters, kites, and balloons for decades. Model blimps, dirigibles and Zeppelins? Have I forgotten anything? Probably somebody has attached one to the payload of a home-made catapult at some point.

"I never allow myself to become discouraged under any circumstances. I recall that after we had conducted thousands of experiments on a certain project without solving the problem, one of my associates, after we had conducted the crowning experiment and it had proved a failure, expressed discouragement and disgust over our having failed 'to find out anything.' I cheerily assured him that we had learned something. For we had learned for a certainty that the thing couldn't be done that way, and that we would have to try some other way. We sometimes learn a lot from our failures if we have put into the effort the best thought and work we are capable of." - Thomas A. Edison, 1921

Wow. Eight hours ago I would not have recognized that. A friend and I just picked up the 16 Ton Megaset this afternoon and watched the first three discs. I pop in here for a quick update and there's a Python quote that's still fresh in my mind.
And yes, I just dropped $50 on a DVD set. Now if James Burke would just reduce the prices on his stuff, maybe I could afford to buy those, too.
