Recorded in 1958, “In Spite of All the Danger” is among the first songs by the Quarrymen, which in 1960 became what much more famous group?
And by the way, did you know that another of New York’s famous water features, Niagara Falls, has moved about seven miles upstream over the past 12,000 years? Stone erodes pretty dramatically when a river is pushing more than 3,000 gallons of water over it every second.
Eventually, the falls will reach Lake Erie and disappear entirely—so if you’ve been planning on an old-fashioned Niagara honeymoon, act quick; you’ve got only 50,000 years left.
Until tomorrow!
