	How to measure Speed of Light.
		In 1728 James Bradley, an English physicist, estimated the speed of light in vacuum to be around 301,000 km/s.
		Stellar aberration is approximately the ratio of the speed that the earth orbits the sun to the speed of light.
		By varying the speed of the wheel, it was possible to determine at what speed the wheel was spinning too fast for the light to pass through the gap between the teeth, to the remote mirror, and then back through the same gap.

	BTF's Baseball Scholars -- Levitt
		I examined the effect of speed on reaching base on error by looking at all 219 batters who had at least 300 at bats in 1980 using the 1980 Retrosheet files.
		Because nearly all times first base is reached on error comes on a ground ball, much of this correlation can be explained by the relationship between speed scores and the propensity to hit ground balls (correlation =.30), i.e.
		I would suppose righties are more likely to reach base on error because they are more likely to hit to the SS or 3B who typically make more errors (mainly due to the longer throw) than first or second basemen.

	James May: If Speed Watchers work, I'll eat my hats - Telegraph
		As long as speed is a quarrel between general public and police, it will at least have an element of sport about it.
		Whether we like it or not, speed is a bit of a grey area, so we need a distinct line drawn between enforcers and potential offenders.
		I hope the Milton of Campsie community is rent by spite and sanctimoniousness, and that fights break out in pubs between Speed Watchers and their friends.

	Re: James Speed
		James Speed did not grow up in a family opposed to slavery.
		His father, John Speed, owned one of the largest slave holdings in Jefferson County at his plantation, Farmington, now a historic site in Louisville, KY. A contemporary of John Speed's indicates that, while Speed spoke about the evils of slavery, he adopted a paternalistic attitude to justify his own participation in the institution.
		James Speed, in an 1861 interview with the Freedman's Bureau, describes himself as an emancipationist who, upon visiting a large Arkansas plantation in 1849, became an "immediate abolitionist." Speed freed his own slaves soon after his trip.
