The 1979 Hugo Award winner for Best Dramatic Presentation was the first Superman movie.
In second place was the first The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy radio series.
I guess when the Vogons blew up the Earth it was quite dramatic.
I’m pretty sure that “Dramatic Presentation” doesn’t exclude comedic works. The Hugo Award rules say the category is for “a dramatized production in any medium, including film, television, radio, live theater, computer games or music”. Nothing about the seriousness of the work.
I should have thought to check Wikipedia in the first place. Among several versions of “Liberty Lighting the World” in Paris and in France, the one I was thinking of is the one at Île aux Cygnes. Says Wiki “It is a quarter-scale version (11.50 metres (37 feet 9 inches) high), and was one of the working models used during construction of the actual Statue of Liberty.”
I never heard of a lechwe until a few minutes ago, and on this fine website.
It’s a species of antelope.
If you’re into crosswords or word puzzles, there’s a buttload of native African, South American, Indian and southeast Asian names for various critters. At least a couple score antelope, even more wild sheep and goats and I don’t know how many rodents.
I saw one in LeRoy, NY - so that’s four down now.
Oddly, I haven’t seen an ‘etui’ in quite a while. If you can twist the clue to apply to an oreo, though, it’s an oreo.
MrsFtG stopped playing Scrabble with me when I played ORYX on a triple-word score. That was almost 50 years ago.
She can hold a grudge.
My brother took this picture of a Bongo, an antelope from Africa, born the day before the photograph.
The Denver zoo was happy to have a Bongo born at their zoo. There are currently more Bongos in zoos than in the wild.
There are more tigers in just the USA, than in the wild.
I suspect this is true of some other animals too.
Bolivia once traded the same land to both Argentina and Chile, which I love it’s not like Bolivia could skip town after the deal. Chile and Argentina almost went to war over the land.
So sad. But at least tigers can be feared. Bongos are peaceful antelopes Damn.
They both also claim to own the Brooklyn Bridge. 
Tried to google this, but couldn’t find the tl;dr story, but would love to know the rest of the story.
History Matters is a series of short videos and his one on why Chile is shaped the way it is mentions it at the 2.35 mark. I tried to embed the video, but got a message that I’m not allowed. Google History Matters Chile.
Thanks!
Btw, History Matters is a great channel and pretty funny.
2:20 Pretty much what I expected: Chile is the habitable strip of coastline between the Pacific ocean and the nigh-impenetrable Andes mountains.
Fascinating. Even more complicated than I thought.
