3 Videos: Incredible: Germany’s first High Speed Train in 1929!!! – Propeller Driven: 150 Km/hr

(007287.69-:E-007570.33:N-XT:R-SU:C-30:V)   

[I was looking through old photos when I came across this most fascinating experimental train. Only one was ever built and it had 40 passengers. It was basically a "Railway Zeppelin" invented by a German engineer. It used a propeller to drive it and on its first runs it was doing 94 mph or 150 km/hr. Can you believe that in South Africa we have a "high speed train" that cost tens of billions of rands to build, and it goes slower than this German invention from 1929!!! I never cease to be amazed at what our race has invented in Europe, especially in Germany. Here are some lovely short videos of this amazing train. A lovely idea. And the fuel it used was cheap to run. But imagine that … a propeller driven train! In some of the projections they expected it to do 200 Km/hr!!!! Jan]

Video: No War has EVER been fought over Right Vs Wrong
Everybody I come across thinks that wars are fought for moral reasons. They think wars are fought over the issue of Right versus Wrong or Good versus Bad. At first this shocked me and I realised that indeed everyone has been conditioned to think like this.
