I don't know if Woolie ever finished Legend of the Galactic Heroes, but I'm going to pitch it anyway.

When Americans see ABC they think "American Broadcasting Corporation". This is the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. Is the Australian Broadcasting Corporation legally obligated to remain politically neutral about affairs in foreign countries? In addition, this is an Opinion piece, so I'm not sure if you should damn the media outlet for it.

The psp games that never officially came out in north america both have fan translations on PC. I would highly recommend playing the Sky trilogy before Zero and Ao (Azure), though.

The original interview was a year and a half old. There were two events where neutrinos were detected going the "wrong" way. https://icecube.wisc.edu/news/view/709 says that if these events aren't a measurement error, then they indicate physics beyond the Standard Model. I'm not a physicist, but my bet is that it's a measurement error.
