Although Lee is often credited with being the "creator" of Marvel Comics, he actually started working there as a copyboy when it was still known as Timely Comics, founded by pulp publisher Martin Goodman. Not to take anything away from Stan...he's certainly helped make Marvel the success it is today.
New York City's practically Disneyland now. Try finding a stripped automobile on the street anywhere in Manhattan, where I'd imagine this would be most popular...most of us have no cars.
The biggest hassle with street parking these days is feeding meters and parking tickets.
Got that right...their legal battles lasted for years with the Wright's trying to claim royalties from anyone wanting to exert control over pitch, yaw and roll. As it happens while the Wrights 12 may have been first (discounting the balloonists for a second), not much of what they did lasted...Curtiss is responsible for win flaps and landing gear and a lot of the other things that go into modern aircraft...and his first flight was a hell of a lot longer than their carefully controlled demonstrations...Albany to NYC.

I know it was a part of their proposed settlement...whether or not it became a part of the final deal I couldn't say.
Should have been "the Wrights 12 second flight"
Should have used preview...

if it was .NET he was poking holes in, Microsoft might suddenly consider it totally "appropriate" to ask MIT to quash the publication...
