Flying in a Hughes 500 helicopter over Sumatra back in the early 70s there was light rain and a lot of mist arising from the rain forrest canopy. A rainbow was dead ahead. As we passed thru, the rainbow became a circle around us as described in the video. I guess a little elevation does wonders for the experience.
Propaganda!
Everyone knows that rainbows are created by "metallicaisized salts" that the government is "putting in our water." Rainbows are a sure sign that secret government chemtrail activity is very high near your area!

Interviewer: The notion of a "guitar solo" has preconceptions based on it; people automatically refute it because it's supposed to be self-indulgent or "for musicians." It's almost like things become iconographic and somehow lose their value for outsiders.
Zappa: Well, whose fault is that? That's what writers do. Musicians don't do that. The average person doesn't sit around thinking about the "iconographic problems of a guitar solo." -- Interview for Musician magazine, by Matt Resnicoff, November 1991. Reprinted in July 1995 Issue.
