Link Of The Week

When I was in elementary school, the coolest field trip that we went on was to the Coca Cola bottling plant about a half hour south in Elizabethtown. Sure, we got samples of freshly made Coke, but the coolest part was seeing the bottles go down the line, get filled with Coke, and then get capped. Today, I don't even know if taking school kids on a field trip to a soft drink company would be politically correct. Anyhoo, I found a site this week that will let you take a virtual field trip to see how soft drinks are bottled, as well as see how an airplane is made. It's brought to us by the fine folks at Stanford University, and it's aptly called How Everyday Things Are Made. Check it out at http://manufacturing.stanford.edu/hetm.html.
