The numbers are so big I am sure we will find nightlife in one of them.

One of the cooler grade school science experiments I've seen ...

Google Maps causes 100 drivers to get stuck in the mud.

Technology isn't always foolproof, as about 100 Colorado drivers learned when Google Maps offered them a supposedly quick way out of a traffic jam.
A crash on Peńa Boulevard, a road leading to Denver International Airport, prompted the app to take drivers on a detour on Sunday.
But it was too good to be true.
The alternate route took drivers down a dirt road that rain had turned into a muddy mess, and cars started sliding around.

Some vehicles couldn't make it through the mud, and about 100 others became trapped behind them.

Do you ever feel drunk when you haven't been drinking? Maybe you have what this guy had.

The man, whose identity has not been revealed, had a rarely diagnosed medical condition called auto-brewery system (ABS), also known as gut fermentation syndrome.
Gut fermentation syndrome occurs when yeast in the gastrointestinal tract causes the body to convert carbohydrates ingested through food into alcohol. The process typically takes place in the upper GI tract, which includes the stomach and the first part of the small intestine.
"These patients have the exact same implications of alcoholism: the smell, the breath, drowsiness, gait changes," Fahad Malik, the study's lead author and the chief internal medicine resident at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, told CNN. "They will present as someone who's intoxicated by alcohol, but the only difference here is that these patients can be treated by antifungal medications."

This would be even better with audio of a horse race announcer calling the race.

I found this an interesting couple of minutes ...

The only cities on the chart at both the beginning and the end are Cairo and Beijing and they each disappear for a while before coming back near the end.

On another one of these animations that projects out to 2100, there are 2 cities in Malawi (Blantyre City and Lilongwe) that it says will have over 40 million people by 2100. Hard to believe since neither city is listed as having even as much as a million rt now. In fact, the entire country has less than 19 million rt now.

By "invited", I assume you don't "have" to "go".
