   I’ve seen him overhead again as well these last few days – here is an album of pics I took on a flight in this ship last December – including an almost identical shot of "The Dish" above

   I have been hearing for years that Zeppelins are the "next big thing": cheap to run and maintain, needing no special landing facilities, capable of carrying very heavy loads, allowing remote and underdeveloped regions to enter the global economy… etc, etc.

   Any truth to all that?

   [http://www.flickr.com/photos/jurvetson] Is that a problem with Helium? Seriously, I have heard that zeppelins would have the same effect on the African economy as cellphones.
