<p>My parents who were (near) teatotallers for most of their lives
would get Rocky Mountain High (just woodsmoke and cold mountain
air, none of John Denver's roll yer own version) and sing this and
other classic songs they learned from their moonshining relatives
in the "hills and hollers" of Kentucky growing up. They were
pretty sober people (alcohol and demeanor) so sitting around the
campfire listening to them belt out these old songs was kind of
creepy. Maybe they had a little brown jug hidden from us
somewhere?<br>
</p>
<p>One of my mother's Grandfathers and his brothers immigrated to KY
from Germany by way of Corning NY to help set up glass bottle
factories to support the transition from "moonshine" to the
Bourbon industry sometime around the turn of the century.<br>

[⛧] I prefer content with some eye candy. This one is
fantastic: <br>
<br>
What’s On The Other Side Of A Black Hole?<br>

It's difficult to criticize anyone who puts effort into their
videos. But compare that one to this one:<br>
<br>
Wormholes Explained – Breaking Spacetime<br>
<a href="https://youtu.be/9P6rdqiybaw" rel="noreferrer

<br>
PBS Spacetime really does a fantastic job. Politics is more
difficult, of course. As someone commented before,
ContraPoints' videos (<a
href="https://www.youtube.com/c/ContraPoints/featured"
rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://www.youtube.com/c/ContraPoints/featured</a>)
are sometimes so visually startling it can get in the way of
the message. And Philosophy Tube (<a
href="https://www.youtube.com/user/thephilosophytube"
rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://www.youtube.com/user/thephilosophytube</a>)
is similar. We're in Hell (<a
