Willis Carrier is such an underrated man.
Agreed!
I have an idea 💡 that's better than redbox or blockbuster put together
I find it frustrating these videos rarely show up on my feed, have missed a few uploads. Makes me wonder how KZread chooses what videos its algorithm favours
this Chanel is very good but almost no subscribers because PEOPLE ARE SO STUPID they don’t look for knowledge!!
Amazing story! Thanks again, LSN!
The pedestal is standing on a Bastion Fort 🧐 explain that please.
It’s always the trust fund/inheritance kids doin this type of shit.
Granted FOREVER thank you for not touching me physically. ❤❤❤❤❤. You are a free land no matter what, no matter what I say or if I change my mind. It is sealed.
Now I wanna see an apocalypse movie where the survivors go to the cheese caves lol
Good video, but the background music is a poor choice. Very distracting.
For more recent related news, Wizards of the Coast sent the Pinkertons after some kid who got sent some Magic the Gathering cards by mistake before their official release date.
Wow! Another great video LSN!! Such an interesting story about the Pinkertons!!
Glad you liked it! It was a lot of fun to research.
That was awesome.
"History" spoilers: One of their greatest feats is putting an end to the infamous Van Der Linde Gang lead by notorious silver tongue Dutch Van Der Linde and his long time partner and friend Hosea Matthews at the end of the 19th century. This mission was led by Agent Andrew Milton and later after Miltons untimely demise by his partner Edgar Ross. After a long chase they picked up another notorious member named Micah Bell who then acted as their informant after he along with Dutch Van Der Linde, Arthur Morgan, Bill WIlliamson and Javier Escuela fled to the Caribbean after a failed bank heist in Saint Denis where Hosea Matthews was killed by Agent Milton. After this the gang supposedly had a falling out and after the capture of Abigail Marston, the wife of a prominent member and close associate of Van Der Linde named John "Rip Van Winkle" Marston, Agent Milton was killed in the freeing of Misses Marston. In the beginning of the new century Miltons successor Edgar Ross continued the efforts of eliminating and bring the residuals of the gang to justice. In 1907 some ex-members of the gang sought revenge against Micah Bell after he had "ratted out" the gang to the Agency and therefore resulted in the disbanding, at that time he was once more working with Dutch who disappeared after the ordeal. Some time later the Agency managed to ahold of John Marston and by having his wife and son as bargaining chip got him to search for the last members of his old gang, namely: Bill WIlliamson, Javier Escuela and Dutch Van Der Linde. He succeeded in tracking them down and bringing them to justice but after a rather brutal shootout at his farm Beecher's Hope him and another member of the disbanded gang named Uncle were killed. His wife and son escaped but there was no interest in going after them as the main pillars of the Van Der Linde gang were all brought to justice. Years later after Edgar Ross had already retired, the Marstons son, Jack Marston, sought vengeance against former Agent Ross and tracked him down to a river where he was fishing and in a duel Jack Marston bested the elderly Ross and shot him dead. His wife along with his house were set on fire. Jack Marston was never brought to justice as he could never be located.
Like with the snake oil video, I always get surprised when a common English term has a clear origin. I had no idea the word private eye came from the Pinkertons! I learned a lot from this video, keep up the great work!
ah the intellectual drink as they say in steins;gate
Pinkerton was a snitch since day 1
He really built a business empire on snitching XD
Theft!
As always, another interesting video! I remember you spoke about the shocking use of Pinkerton guards in your earlier video about Andrew Carnegie.
You're spot on! Coming across the Homestead Mill strike in the Carnegie video's research led me to the Pinkertons.
Love your work! Keep up the awesome content!
Thank you! Glad you liked it. Are there any topics you're interested in seeing in the future? I'm always open to ideas :)
American Tax Dollars at work. 🙄🤦♀

Regarding 7:42, President Richard Milhous Nixon abandoned the Bretton Woods system on April 15, 1971 by refusing to sell any more gold to foreigners in exchange for their United States dollars at $35 per troy ounce. Nixon did not sign Executive Order 11825. Instead it was President Gerald Rudolph Ford who signed Executive Order 11825 on December 31, 1974 that revoked President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's Executive Order 6102 from April 5, 1933. Therefore Americans could once again buy and own gold. The price of gold ultimately rose to its highest price ever of $2,449.80 per troy ounce on May 20, 2024. Ironically the Federal Reserve's price of gold still is only $42.22 per troy ounce since February 12, 1973.
Thank you for elaborating with additional context!
Till today they are stealing from everyone. Now other countries
They rather do this than give affordable healthcare
I know someone’s dad that worked there. Amazing
No the true evolution to TP "Wide Load TP" 8x8 inch sheets. Just awesome!
Gold was $20 when confiscated. Then was $35 shortly. In 1975 it jumped to $195. Government never compensated people who complied. If you held gold, that was a smart move
Also amazing is that no one managed to compose anything remotely as good in the 200 years of human development after his death. We peaked long ago lol
I always loved Mozart's compositions for their vigor and distinctiveness. It's amazing that his works endure, given the ups and downs of his short, wild, and eventful life.
Absolutely, it would have been incredible to see the works he could have come up with had he been given more time, but I'm very grateful for what he was able to accomplish with what he did have.
It created Cancer alley from Knoxville to Winston Salem and Beyond is what the older generation said.
Los Alamos and the surrounding areas had similar issues. I read a few points about this while researching the video, but I figured I might do a deeper dive on it in a future video about the testing areas and their consequences.
34.1lbs of cheese a year is rookie numbers, we need to bump those number up
Do u need a professional KZread thumbnail designer and video SEO expert?
It was named Oak Ridge because the main ridge through town is Black Oak Ridge for the Black Oak trees all over it.
I was born and raised in Oak Ridge. I thought everyone had nuclear physicists for next-door neighbors. My father worked at Y-12 and X-10 (Oak Ridge National Lab). Y-12 today, has a huge depository of bomb-grade Uranium. They demolished the K-25 gaseous diffusion building years ago. A lot of the "alphabet houses" built for workers are still here and well maintained. More Nobel Prize winners have called Oak Ridge home than any other city in the world.
That's so cool! Thank you for sharing. I'd love to visit Oak Ridge someday; I can't image what it must have been like growing up there.
@@Learn_Something_New if you can, go visit the Oak Ridge National Lab. The things they do will make your head spin. My father worked there. www.ornl.gov/
I know someone whose dad worked there.
Oak Ridge used to have the highest PhD per capita in the nation. We have recently been beat out by Washington on that. :(. We also used to have the largest pool in the nation. Too bad we downsized. :(. I’ll never forget swimming out in that cold water to “the raft”. Once you made it to the moldy raft you were so good on the backstroke to survive home. :-). ❤
@@MsAudreyDavis when was the swimming pool downsized?
Bankster schemes fermented , surplus production and arbitraged moneylenders leveraged monetary policies embedded socialism as a cure..not THE DISEASE..

DUHHHH FEDCRESERVE IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL...LOL WAKE UP FOLKS HMMM
It's quite odd and disgusting knowing those people who walk out of stores proudly under their arms are showing everyone the items that helps smears their shit all over their hands.
1 serving or 28g of that stuff had 9g of fat, 6g of sat fat, 30 mg of cholesterol and 380mg of sodium. Yea Its probably for the best we don’t give that out lol
