Europe's oldest wooden staircase found in Austria.Sheesh, they ought to post a sign or something. Not everybody wants to take the elevator, but the stairs can be so hard to find.

Blam, you see the beginnings of Zeppelin history. Just for the friendly historical record, it was the 9th,10th,11th and 12th of January 1969 at the Fillmore West, San Francisco, California. As a longtime Bootleg Zepp collector, those recordings(which were part of the first 33 Live shows as the band) are absolutely amazing. Besides, is there any other band on earth, that could record (and tour for) their first 4 Albums in a 28 month period nowadays? I do not hesitate to laugh at the preposterousness of the question, as no band ever will again.

"Blam, you see the beginnings of Zeppelin history. Just for the friendly historical record, it was the 9th,10th,11th and 12th of January 1969 at the Fillmore West, San Francisco, California."Thanks...Time sure passes fast, lol.
I took my younger brother to that concert and he became a life long Zepplin fanatic...he had every album and every thing Zepplin produced. He passed away about two years ago at the age of 51 and my sister came down recently and went through his 'stuff' and gave her 20 year old son all the original Zepplin things of my brother's. She said he son can't stop talking about all the original Zepplin material...He is a Zepplin fanatic too.

Hallstatt Salt Worlds
In antiquity, Hallstatt was a thriving salt-mining and trading center. In 1734 the fully preserved body of a prehistoric miner was found in the Hallstatt Salt Mine, known today as the "Man in Salt".
Alas, the story doesn't have all that happy an ending. The body was reverently interred in the local cemetery, where it has by now rotted to dust. Hope remains that one or more other unfortunate miners of ancient times will someday be found in the collapsed ancient galleries.

"Hope remains that one or more other unfortunate miners of ancient times will someday be found in the collapsed ancient galleries." Oetzi, the ice man, was found not to far away.

Without the 1734 remains it's hard to say for sure, but Oetzi was probably twice as old (5000 years) as the Man in Salt. :') George W. Bush will be reelected by a margin of at least ten per cent
