Reply to comment by TooMuchPretzels in TIL in early 1942 the Battle of Los Angeles was fought, with an hour-long barrage of anti-aircraft artillery fired from the city against a perceived Japanese invasion. The cause: a stray weather balloon. by McKFC
America's first known use of a Ferris Wheel in wartime.
All those years of secretly developing and testing Ferris Wheels in the Nevada dessert paid off.

Your comment and the thread that follows should be used by their marketing department. Glowing reviews that erased any doubts about whether or not to try a Roku. (Especially the feature that searches all your apps for a certain program and then puts you there with a click ... Sold.)
