I hope you'll appreciate this small grammatical correction. Writing "I'll never miss none of your videos" makes you sound like a Victorian street-urchin out of a Dickens novel such as Oliver Twist or Hard Times. All that's missing is the word "mister" at the end. It's also a double-negative, so to non-Victorian-street-urchins you're actually saying, "I'll always miss all of your videos". What you want to write is "I'll never miss any of your videos, mister" or "I will miss none of your videos, mister". Even, "I shall watch every one of your videos, mister". They are a very good creator though - you're spot on there! They must rack up some amount of Air Miles flying all over the place just to make these clips. Kudos to 3MOA.

I'm forever amazed at the speed of development of aircraft. From the Wright Flyer in 1903 to the 707 jet in airliner 1957 was a mere 54 years. Less than one lifetime. And then there is the safety record. Not perfect, but pretty close. Pre COVID the number of flights worldwide had climbed to 40 MILLION per year and I guess it is now getting back to those numbers. I'm amazed these things aren't dropping out of the sky every day. It's amazing what humans can do when they aren't busy killing each other. On the other hand, things like WWII spurred a lot of the development. So perhaps there can be benefits from killing each other.
