Homebrew Air Conditioning for Under $25

inkey string writes "Summer has arrived, and I've been busy slowly overheating in my student house without central air. I decided to put my thermodynamics classes to work however, and produced this ~24$ homebrew air conditioner. It'll cool a room to a comfortable level in 15-20 mins, and will run for a few hours on a garbage pail full of water. It's cheap, environmentally friendly (just fire the waste water off to your garden), and makes a good one hour project for a quiet evening."

    Hey kids! Let's all go down to South California for the day! Michael Jackson is throwing a pool party and we can all skinny dip in his pool! And if we're lucky, he might share some jesus juice and duck-butter with us at the end of the day!

    The media is deeply disappointed that there was no guilty verdict on any of the charges to continue crucifying Wacko Jacko as the next Peewee Herman in American Pop Culture. Plus, it's hot in California. I think I'll go back to the swimming pool now since there's no news going on either /. or the media.
