Catch a Falling Star
One of the great things about the Internet is that it gives a way for ordinary people to distribute extraordinary material they create. Tony Rowell is a photographer; in years past, he might have a gallery.
Now he has a picture on Astronomy Picture of the Day.
Another great thing about the Internet is that it's now simple to pull together related items. For example, Perry Como's 1957 song Catch A Falling Star was the first Gold Record - ever. It was also the first Grammy for a Male vocalist - ever.
I'm not sure what Mr. Como would think of this Internet thing, but I suspect that he'd like Mr. Rowell's picture.
