  • I was confused about why I could not open my main backpack and in my confusion, I mentioned Sam Hill

  • While talking about the nature of my audience, I mentioned Vid-IQ.
  • I spent some time talking about storage mods and how they can work together, including Storage Drawers, Ars Nouveau, Refined Storage, Sophisticated Backpacks, and Sophisticated Storage.
  • This is where I got the quote about the fully armed and operational battle station.
Music

Ever since I watched The Sting as a child, I have loved Ragtime music. However, I am not a musician, composer, or even a particularly knowledgeable fan of music. I enjoy what I enjoy and that includes many different genres of music. However, Ragtime is the soundtrack for the era I am simulating and this may the first time that modern listeners may be exposed to it. So I am including some general Ragtime links and whatever information I can find on the particular tracks I used in this episode.
