Hi Steve, Thanks for this fascinating dive into classic watch technology! :D I'm old enough to have owned several wind-up watches, but my current wrist watch is solar powered. It keeps good time. That was a fascinating read; I enjoyed listening.

PL OK! :thumbs:

Hi Elsie, Many thanks for bringing vol. 102 to a nice conclusion with this descriptive piece about the ins and outs of horse shoeing! :D Neither horses nor humans walk well in ill-fitting shoes!
