Most of “Human After All,” Daft Punk’s third LP, is, sadly and surprisingly, as stupid, repetitive, and boring as a techno album can be. And they can be pretty stupid, repetitive, and boring. I say “most of” because there are a few spots that would have fit among the middle-to-low-end tracks on one of their previous CDs, which brought the pair of Parisian DJs much-deserved fame and acclaim...

The only purpose of those huge wings would be to fly, and there is a certain amount of evidence that the pterosaur could fly pretty well." Paleontologist Langston is equally optimistic: "We fully expect this model to fly," he says. "If anyone can do it, MacCready can." --By Jamie Murphy.
