1911 Overland OctoAuto - The 50 Worst Cars of All Time
Milton Reeves had a very hard head and, apparently, very poor eyesight. While the general conformation of the automobile was largely sorted out in the first decade of the 20th century particularly that business about four wheels Reeves thought perhaps eight or a minimum of six wheels might provide a smoother ride. Welding in some bits to a 1910 Overland and adding two more axles and four more guncart-style wheels, Reeves created the OctoAuto, proudly displaying it at the inaugural Indianapolis 500.

Just a single cell full of liquid, less than half the size of this comma, it contains the DNA of your parents and their parents, your children and their children. It’s a world-in-waiting, a fragile bud of human potential. And, as with all not-quite-realized things, its chief enemy is time.

Can the Mississippi River Handle the Next Big Flood?
By May 9, 2019, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers had been in a flood fight in Louisiana for nearly 200 days. Officials gathered every morning in a conference room in New Orleans that was—perhaps thankfully—windowless, keeping their opponent out of view: just below the office snarled the overladen Mississippi River, more than 8 million gallons of water ripping past each second.
