    		 Fasten your seatbelts gang, the multimedia year-end retrospective avalanche is headed our way. Let the talking heads talk cuz only the observations on Retro Junk really count.

    Share what really stands out to you as notable from 2012.

    I would like to link to David Breashears, the executive director of GlacierWorks, gigapixel image of Everest from earlier this past summer.

    Check out the promo video embedded on the website on the HOME page.
    Spend some time and explore some amazing images at "The Roof of the World":

      		 2012 recap:

      Whitney Houston's death.
      Andy Griffith's death.
      Constant babblings about this so-called rapture on the 21st.
      The Connecticut shootings.
      The Aurora, CO shootings.
      The Dark Knight Rises.
      The London Olympics
      Hurricane Sandy
      There is a battle between two wolves inside us all.

      One is evil and the other one is good. Which wolf will win? The one you feed the most.

                    		 2012 is the year that Autonomous Weapon Systems went mainstream. Thanks to Human Rights Watch a lot of people that paid little attention before are on the alert now.

                    I knew about advanced robotics at DARPA, but I never knew about TARDEC - the auto industry's arm of defense research, located in Detroit.

                    Did you guys know that Throwbots are real? Check out the last minute of this clip:
