Tempratech Self-Cooling Can

r.future writes "I saw on Gizmodo that a company called Tempratech has created an 100% safe and environmentally friendly aluminum can that uses a self-chilling process involving a cooling gel, desiccant, and heat sinks, to chill itself. The self-contained I.C. Can is the approximate size of a 500 mL beverage can. This includes the beverage container itself, and the integral self-chilling device, and according to Tempratech the can is 'proven to lower beverage temp by a minimum of 30 degrees Fahrenheit in only three minutes.'"

    Recycling as it stands right now is worse for the enviroment then just throwing stuff out. Maybe one day that won't be the case, but as it stands right now, everytime you recycle that plastic bottle or newspaper you did more damage to the enviroment then if you had just made a new one.

    Funny, I thought the only thing on that road were used car lots and roads to "Duplex City"... neither places I would want to be. Oh, yeah, and the "Fraternal Order of the Eagles"" where my Grandfather had his wedding reception after marrying a Sasquatch.

    A lawyer friend (o.k. acquantence, as I don't think he has friends) has sued EVERY LAST ONE of the used car lots on that street.

    Regardless, I would never send some poor pizza boy there, even for a good joke.

    oops, did I just admit to a familiarity with Bradenton? SHIT!

    From the address, I think that Tempratech must be located in one of the dinky little industrial parks that dominate that part of town.

    Does anyone else remember the series by Stephen R. Donaldson, The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever, and its sequel series, The Second Chronicles of Thomas Covenant?

    Well, its being continued in The Last Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, and the first volume (of four) comes out on 14 October 2004! Read an excerpt here

    I've submitted this twice, but the powers-that-be aren't well-read enough to recognise it as newsworthy.
