“Hats off to Greenland” [very small array] shows each country’s the per-capita density of NY Times references. Commenters point out that Greenland isn’t a country, but a self-governing Danish province.

Oh gosh oh golly oh wow. BlueRoom videos of Animal Collective at Coachella have been on YouTube for months, but I didn’t notice until now. This is the only one that sounds as good as I remember it (“Comfy In Nautica” is pretty rough and they cut away during the “Fireworks” finale for Portishead), and I remember it sounding like the happiest thing I heard that day. 

Oh, and the Hove stuff is great and easier listening.
