Re: Post your off-topic YouTube videos worth seeing here!

I are now a Texan, but I was born and raised a Hoosier. Recently ran across a very nice rendition of "Back Home Again in Indiana" and thought a few people here might enjoy it too. (LIke Seamus, he seems to like hoosierland.)

The pictures in the video are nice -- the fall foliage ones look just like where I grew up (altho the beginning and ending title slide colors are a bit jarring. :shock: )

However, I am posting this for the singing. The music track is not identified, but I am sure it is the men's acappella group called Straight No Chaser.

This is a very nice, mellow version. There are dozens of jazz-style versions of Back Home Again in Indiana on Youtube (including a couple by Louis Armstrong), but very few slower-paced ones, and almost all of those are of Jim Neighbors (yes, Gomer Pyle) singing it at the Indy 500 race.

Hope you like it.

Martin-Baker (UK company) ejection seats are the standard for the western world. This is a link to the one used in the Harrier. http://www.martin-baker.co.uk/products/ ... rrier.aspx" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Click on the "How It Works" tab and check out all the stuff that goes one when ejection is initiated. Pretty impressive.
