Just FYI to readers in the U.S.:

The PBS NOVA TV series is airing a new episode on Tuesday, November 7th
(tomorrow as I write this) about Alberto Santos-Dumont titled "Wings of
Madness". Here's the web page on the program:

For those unfamiliar with him, Alberto was one of the pioneers of both
lighter and heavier-than-air flight. IMHO, Alberto could be considered the
homebuilder's homebuilder.

(You probably should check your local listings for actual date and time.)
