Anti-Frostidigitation: Heatpipe Gloves
Hettinga writes "A little casemod couture this morning, courtesy of Hongbin Ma, a professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University of Missouri. He has developed heatpipe-driven gloves which pump therms from your toasty upper arm down to those aforementioned frosty digits. 'Each glove contains five small heat pipes, one for each finger, that are about 14 inches long and 1 mm x 2 mm in the cross section. Each pipe consists of three sections: an evaporating section, which is attached to the upper arm area; an adiabatic section, which is between the finger area and the arm area; and the condensing section, which is attached to the finger area.' Coming soon to a half-pipe near you..."

Dear sir,
Enclosed with this letter is a copy of the book 'Starship Troopers' by Robert A. Hienlien, and a check made out in the ammount of 150 million dollars. Please read the enclosed book and begin work upon Powered Combat armor as soon as possible. We would like the Test Type suit ready within 3 years, and a functional suit within 5. My associates and I will be along to pick up 10 working copies of the suits, fully armed, on the 22nd of January, 2009.
When we rule the world, your death will be quick and painless.
Sincerely,
Howard Hughes, Jr.

"Qua!?"
Spoken like a true Ontarian! Psst, the rest of canada hates your province, not Quebec. Get with the times.
Reformers hate liberal ontario and Alberta has it's own separatist movement. BC, Quebec, and Manitoba have a marijuana alliance. Eastern canada has a distinct fishing culture,
Ontario is pretty much just another US state.
>Reformers hate liberal ontario
No shit! And yeah, I voted for them. You'll see later on in this comment I hate liberals. A lot. For a host of reasons I'd detail out, but then I'd just look like a whiner.
Anyways, that's why I mentioned them and they also hate Quebec. Unlike Ontario, which they like _enough_ to hold elections there, they gave Quebec the big goose egg.
>Ontario is pretty much just another US state.
And there's a problem with that? It's like the US, but WITH the missing healthcare and intelligent "stay out of other's business" government. A sweet combo, IMHO.
>Alberta has it's own separatist movement. BC, Quebec, and Manitoba have a marijuana alliance
None have which have gotten into even the double digits for seats in government. Unlike the Bloc, they're joke parties. The Bloc means business and has more seats in government than provinces outside Ontario get votes.
(And yes, before you ask, Ontarians are idiots for voting liberal over and over. I'd support any movement to get more power into the hands of voters in Western Canada. At least they have a clue.)

For the record, quebec had Canadian Alliance (post-reform party) candidates in the 1998 national election, they just didn't get any seats because people here don't want a right wing party.
