Was this the one that you mentioned a few months back? I remember you talking to me about nuclear battery.

How I yearn for the day that we can use nuclear batteries in cars, if the nuclear battery is not powerful enough, then use some ultra caps, or some sort of power battery (A123, or Altair Nanosafe).

I have tons of fission batteries, but they are so heavy you can't carry many of them, and they are not worth that many caps.

Best use I've found yet is mixing them with 20lbs of wild ponga fruit and some yeast to brew up some nice moonshine.
I have heard they are great for powering up giant combat robots, but I have yet to confirm this.

that's what games like WoW do to people. IT'S LIKE VIRTUAL CRACK!

my little brother did a less dramatic version of that when his runescape membership got canceled he was spending 8-10 hours a day on the game and it seemed like it became his primary life while reality was his secondary life. it consumed his life. his personality changed after about 2 weeks of not playing. after the anger and depression subsided, he started actually talking to friends in reality and not in the game.


They say a good mechanic only needs 2 tools - WD40 & Duct tape. If it moves, and its not supposed to, duct tape. If it doesn't move, and its supposed to, WD40.

That "kid" needs to lay off the Slipknot for a while... Better yet just put him in the asylum now before he shoots up his high school. IF that video is even "real"...

I have thought whether it was real or not, but then thought, how can someone act like that if he/she is not like that PERSONALLY. I don't know, seems kinda real to me, IMO.

Sorry Luc, didn't mean for the thread to be hijacked like this... can we get back to the thread topic, if anyone has anything to say?
