It's not so much about playing/slowing/speeding up an animation or video. It's about moving forward and backward through an "experience," as much as I dislike the overuse of that word. I'd suggest it's a natural evolution of the scroll behavior.

I remember as a kid asking how many possible speeds there are between 60 mph and 0 mph. Infinite right? So how does the car get from 60 to stopped when mom hits the brakes?

Hey Peter.. many thanks! My husband is from Gibraltar and his spousal green card application has cleared USCIS and is with NVS.

Gibraltar has changed the name of the criminal record document it issues but NVS has not updated its system. So they keep rejecting his documents even though we included a letter from the police commissioner explaining the situation.

Any suggestions?

This may be pedantic, but I'm baffled that PBS page doesn't mention every PBS station is available for free over the air.

Has no one told the one about the USB guy's funeral? They put him in the ground, but realized he was the wrong way 'round so they pulled him out and put him in the other way.

Pretty sure this was a thing in Victorian England. It's in Jack the Ripper stories and possibly where the word "hangover" came from I think.

Does this mean I can stop worrying about remembering to wake up Green Day?
