Build Your Own HERF Gun

James writes "Rostislav Persion from Voltage Labs has successfully constructed a HERF gun (a device like EMP but directional) in his home that is capable of stalling cars at a distance and crashing computers as well. He has videos of the device in action as it lights up LED's at a distance and triggers motion detectors. Theres also a bunch of other security stuff and science stuff which is quite interesting and controversial, such as cell phone tracking, mood altering audio signals, gyro guns, and other things of this nature. The site owner was also featured in US News Magazine and MTV for some of his work."

    That invention predates him by thousands of years.

    And was invented by a woman no doubt....

    But seriously, I dunno what the big deal about mood altering audio is. I listened to several of the files in a random order, and I feel no different.

    Now if you'll excuse me, I need to finish gnawing off my left foot then I'm going to go sing love songs to my car.

    Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.

    You have to be kidding me...
    I admit I'm not the best comedian around, but I see much worse stuff get modded up on a daily basis around here.

    At the very least, I beg to differ that (Score: 1) was overrated.
