Fixing the World and Killing a Film

Just to follow up on last night's discussion of "The World Without Us," I wanted to post a link to this fantastic Radiolab podcast about the "poop train." It's about a local environmental crisis that demanded a creative solution and got one, at least temporarily. It's alternatively disgusting, depressing, and inspiring, sort of like last night's discussion.

Also, here's the unreleased ending to "Titanic," which should kill any lingering appreciation of that film you might have (or perhaps renew your appreciation for the major studios that still have the power to rein in egomaniacal directors).
