are Disney and the U.S. Air Force in cahoots over UFOs? (and other adventures in social networking)

What my followers on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ saw today:
• Solves the pressing problem of our children failing to watch enough television… Netflix Sets Table For Kids to Binge-Watch

• For nerds who want to show their love today… Best Nerdy Valentine’s Day Cards

Doctor Who Valentines

(There’s more. Click over.)

• Whaaaat? Did the U.S. Air Force Ask Walt Disney to Make a Movie Revealing That UFOs Are Real?

• I wish all those spammers who say “FINAL ATTEMPT” meant it and would just fuck off already.

• I don’t know what to make of this Tesla vs The New York Times thing. Why would the Times’ journo lie about something that was so verifiable? Or maybe he didn’t realize that? A Most Peculiar Test Drive

• It’s weird how #LawAndOrderUK is just as addictive as the US version, even when I can pinpoint the old eps the UK ones are based on.

Googled “NY Times tesla supercharger” and came up with this rebuttal:

Looks like a case of alternate realities.

That was posted after I posted this. There are more links and comments at my Facebook post of the Tesla link that you might find interesting: http://www.facebook.com/mjohansonwriter/posts/457034477698270

I am reminded of this too in regards to this tiff between the NYT and Tesla.

Do I think the NYT’s did that. No. But I think it may be on certain people’s mind.

Did one guy at Disney claim something, more than thirty years ago, and produce no actual evidence for it? Maybe. We can’t even verify that at this point.
