    Awesome! I wish I didn\’t have to work for a living so I could go, play around and be apart of an a-faire like that. What has become of my youth… :-(

    Were those guys in the white coats shooting some kind of diet soda? What makes it come out of the bottle like that?

  5. WOW! I wish one of their future stops would be a little closer in the north-east. Austin is just a tad far for us to take a trek to check that out. Bummer.

    Thanks for the clip.

      1. Nothing personal; just wasn\’t paying attention! I will delete that old moniker from my drop down list held in my FF browser. It\’s time to adopt the brand new CC once and for all!

        Thanks again B-man!
        PS: good thing you didn\’t go for the change to BM the other day - kam nailed the reason for that!

      3. Alright; just what I need! All I have to do is go underground or move to Mars! No problem; my business is all online. Do they have hi-speed on Mars yet?

        Hey where did he come from?

        I can post unregistered as CC but trying to create a new ID as CC is invalid; 3 char min. C-C just isn\’t the same… I feel short changed.

  9. I just love Tesla coil based things! I just wonder how they could make the robot move without frying the engine from the high voltage. I guess good insulation is the answer.
    Also delicious: The robot wars, the experimental harp, the light floor, the flame throwers, the giant NES controller. (Although I\’d seen that one before)
    Also, I\’m curious as to why Mentos eruptions only work with diet coke. I\’ve noticed a related effect with diet sodas, but I\’m still interested in why it happens.

  10. Sorry for spamming, but wtf is this?

    I refuse to believe it’s just a bunch of straws, moving randomly.

    Also, I’d sure like to see a comparison

    vs.

    in terms of processing power.

    If they put me in the slammer, I won\’t be able to post on Rocketboom.
    It\’s the only time I get a chance to write.
