MysticWicks endorsement: "I've always, always regarded the Discordians as being people who chose to be Discordians because they can't be arsed to actually do any work to develop a relationship with a specific deity, they were too wishy-washy to choose just one path, and they just want to be a mishmash of everything and not have to work at learning about rituals or traditions or any such thing as that."

This is pretty cool.  I can't help but wonder how this could be applied if it was scaled up...

Anyone ever think about how Richter inhabits the same reality as you and just scream and scream and scream, but in a good way?   :lulz:

NEAT!
"I'm guessing it was January 2007, a meeting in Bethesda, we got a bag of bees and just started smashing them on the desk," Charles Wick said. "It was very complicated."

I do also.  The biggest power drain in my subnotebook (and one of the biggest in other computers) is the cooling fan.

Actually wait.  I want a really big one, so big that I can use it as part of a hovercraft.

What was the weight to power ratio?

Not that we probably know...

It's more efficient (they say), than a mechanical fan.  Depending on how the corona effect functions would determine scaling it up though.
