never heard of those legends, but there are mentions of flying chariots (vimana) in ancient holy vedic texts, one of which was ridden by prince who launched a thunderbolt arrow at his enemies, which caused a column of smoke to rise in the sky... enemy soldiers had to jump in rivers to try and save themselves...
it's an account commonly referred to by the "ancient astronaut" believer crowd as proof of semi-prehistoric nuclear war and spaceships.
Fact is: Since pictures of abused childs are aviable on the web, the number of childs killed in abuses has dropped remarkably in Germany. From 40 per year in the Eighties down to six last year. That's 34 children rescued
Are you sure this is why the number of children abused declined?
Children were rescued because their photos were online?
Or, since there are photos online, pedophiles are less likely to commit abuse themselves directly on children because they have less-risky access to such photos?
There could be other factors we havent thought about... the most obvious connection isnt necessarily the real one.

They proved it to me by playing other, higher quality recordings made by well known perfectionist artists.
BTW it was at an independent store that sold various competing manufacturers' audio hardware, as opposed to, say, shopping for a Sony audio system at a Sony store.
The same lack of recording quality noise could also be heard on same quality level audio systems made by different manufacturers too.
You raise an interesting point, in that I recently shopped for a high-end audio system.
At the store, I was taken to a listening room with various speaker configurations, to get a feel of the different quality levels of each system.
The salesperson played various music CDs, and I thought I could hear some strange background noise, and the salesperson agreed. We checked with a more knowledgeable guy at the store, and it came down to the actual recording quality of the CD.
The audio system was actually exposing the shoddy standards used at the recording studio!
Now, if the RIAA starts implementing methods that further degrade the audio recording, the way Macrovision introduces crap on a tv screen if you feed the signal through something between the TV and the playback device, the audiophiles will howl!
is that biodiesel gels at about 32 degress F. So, if you are parking your car outside in below-freezing temperatures, you have to mix it with petroleum diesel and/or add anti-gelling additives.

My gaming rig is also excellent at video editing -- two hobbies of mine.
like Credit Card Companies do when you withdraw money from your CC.
It's only fair.
I dont like gel cells because they get damaged if you let them completely drain too long, OR if you overcharge them.
The usage bottleneck is still the battery... limited to one hour of tv in this instance.

Did you know the sky CAN fall in some places? On May 10, 1996, 8 climbers died on Mt Everest when the stratosphere sank down on to the summit.

There's also these two mind-boggling phenomena:
Why play a FPS game, when you can play Paintball?
Why run on a threadmill or pedal on a stationary bicycle, when you can run or bike outside?
IMO, as a species, we humans do the darnedest shiat.
What kind of alternative 12VDC batteries could be used instead of that potentially unsafe lead acid one?
I think a laptop battery might do the trick, but where do you find the connectors?
can you side-talk with it?

They have until this Friday to tell the foundation that, if this announced flight is successful, a 3-person flight will be attempted on July 4th.
that means we could send people on super-long space exploration voyages, provided we can also engineer an end to 0-gravity boneloss

Most of the spam I receive doesnt include a snail-mail address, just a credit-card form...
So where would you send a cheque?
If there was an actual mailing address, I'm sure a lot more spammers would get caught and/or beat up.
