This explanation of the 'greenhouse effect' in 1985 by Dr. Carl Sagan remains a landmark of science communication for its clarity and planetary perspective.
Striking coincidence: the actors leaving this iconic scene from The Godfather Part II passed away in the same order.
Fredo: John Cazale (1978)
Sonny: James Caan (2022)
Tom: Robert Duvall (2026)
Michael: Al Pacino, still alive.
During the wedding scene of The Godfather (1972), an elderly man takes the microphone and begins to sing a traditional Neapolitan song. This is Gennaro Amato, a renowned Neapolitan comic performer who was one of the great figures of Italian-American stage and recording culture in early 20th-century New York.
The piece he performs is “C’è la luna mezzo mare” or “There’s a Moon in the Middle of the Sea”, a classic Sicilian wedding song. The song is full of meanings and humor. It’s an old folk tune about a mother and daughter discussing possible suitors.

@Goldrushcomic He’s godly man if he’s the god.
Religion isn’t the problem, wilful and celebrated ignorance and stupidity is. The USA has always been anti intellectual. You even spend time celebrating a dubass with Columbus Day for things he didn’t do.
