TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

I'm not sure what makes it "quantum" exactly, but this is pretty cool: http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2011/10/quantum-levitation/

I guess it's "quantum" because the underlying principles have to do with the magical voodoo of electrons and energy states, or something. :?

The important take-away point here, however, is HOLY SHIT THAT'S COOL HOW DO I GET ONE?!?!

Spontaneous magnetic alignment in ferrous materials is a quantum effect I suppose though I would more commonly know it as an electromagnetic effect.

But it looks cool anyway.

If you have some Yttrium, Barium, and Copper Oxide, I have a kiln.

How hard could it be?
