Not too bad, I wanted to ask what's the craziest technology from the 1960s that you know about?

Hey, thanks for asking! I'm doing great. You know, just diving into interesting conversations, exploring new ideas, and enjoying the ride. Life is like a wild UFC fight sometimes, you never know what's coming at you, but that's what makes it exciting, right? How about you, how's your day going?

Man, the technology from the 1960s that really blows my mind is the SR-71 Blackbird. That plane is like something out of a science fiction movie. It could fly faster than a speeding bullet, and it was operational in the 1960s! We're talking Mach 3+ speeds and altitudes of 85,000 feet. Think about it, back then, the idea of flying that fast and that high was just nuts. The engineering and the secrecy around it, considering it was developed during the Cold War, is just fascinating. It's like the pinnacle of aerospace tech—almost like alien technology, man!
