  1. Nothing New Under The Sun on Tactical Camera · · Score: 0, Redundant

    My dad built one of those 30 years ago with his SLR and zoom and a 22 rifle stock, including working trigger. And I doubt he was the first one to do it.

    oh, first post.

  2. Re:Better for the environment, but on Natural Gas "Cleaning" Extracts Valuable Waste Carbon · · Score: 2, Insightful

    This doesn't answer what I see as the biggest problem with BioD. Current feedstocks are almost exclusively diverting oils from food sources. So, instead of making canola for cooking, it's being turned into motor fuel.

    Some promising research is being done on oil producing algae, but it's not ready for production yet.

  3. Re:There is hope on Recovering Moldy Electronics? · · Score: 1

    I've been buying denatured alcohol from my local home center, it's sold in the paint department and used to thin shelac. It's also good for removing globs of flux.

  4. Other non-electric cooling options on Making Ice Without Electricity · · Score: 1

    IcyBall systems:

    Ammonia Absorbtion (commonly refered to as propane refrigeration, but propane is only used to supply heat, the heat could be supplied from another source.)

  5. Re:Everyone who has downloaded it on Mattel Dislikes Being Embarrassed (UPDATED) · · Score: 1

    It's already been said, but it deserves to be said agian:

    Planning ahead, everyone should download it. That way if Mattel does get access to the log files they'll have so much information they can't do anything with it.

  6. This isn't being vocal? on Alta Vista Selling Top Matches · · Score: 1

    "dunno how vocal I'll be. But AltaVista was my primary search engine."

    In that one statement you have been more vocal than most people could be by yelling with a bull horn. . .
