Millennial Flight works like normal flight as in your initial speed is based on how long you charge it. However, it has an additional boost once at full speed that kicks in after 10 seconds and boosts its speed to be equivalent with Rocket Boots/Rocket Pack. I haven't seen this mentioned elsewhere and it's not stated in the description or long help, so I figured folks might want to know for build planning purposes.

Being a music freak, I did some research and can't find any evidence of a Foreigner cover of Blinded By The Light, although I do see a number of lyric websites claiming it is indeed a Foreigner song. I've also found those claiming it's a Steve Miller song. Research says those websites are wrong. I can find no discography that indicates either of those bands ever did a cover. The hit version was indeed by Manfred Mann's Earth Band although they didn't write it...
What I did find out is that the song was originally written and recorded by none other than Bruce Springsteen. That's interesting; gonna need to find a copy of that one...
