If the basic principle of Mechanical Television and this new technology using lasers and mirrors instead of a circular plane with holes or a 'screw' mirror for Mechanical Television is combined, we may well see compact, bright and large-screen rear-projection or straight lensed projection screens.
It sounds like they've just borrowed the funamental idea from an invention with basis closer-to the 19th century than the 21st century slapped it with a nice laser and added modern IC's, Brilliant!.
Id say that a mirror rotates at/extremely/ high speed creating a scanning-line capable of scanning a large area in short enough time for a usable frame-rate and they oscillate the Laser via a light-blocking-transistor.
A great and reliable idea, cheapest means to get a scanline too!!
Which I just thought of something in relation to small and low altitude aicraft, these things will make/EXCELLENT/ pocket heaters or actually, good portable clothing heaters to warm your entire body or cabin, individual of each person!
Instead of using electricity in a radiating and quite possibly dangerous way (only if high voltage, if low voltage then it could be dangerous by actually melting conductors on conduction ) why not use the hot exhaust air, surely a safer and least efficient-electricity-wise micro-engine would suffice for a portable clothing heating system =)
Don't any of you dare patent it! I got the idea first!, in BTTF-III!
Not to mention the size of the heatsink and heatpipes on your PDA... =)
Maybe they'll/could place an accessory exhaust port/hose near your chair that places it outside of the airplane. Though I would imagine there would be problems with sabotage and garbage...
You could easily fix the decompression problem by coupling all of the exhausts together into one pipe and then placing a springed valve on the main exhaust as it goes through the rest of the cabins and out the back..
Residue and oxygen depletion would increase dramatically aswell, Though you could also lay down an independant intake network, however all of this would make depressurisation irrelevant so this simple solution could only be possible in light and fairly low altitude bearing aircraft.
Personally, passengers are getting far too individual on airplanes, its not like the electricity you receive on an airplane is as polluted as your disease/tobacco smoke laden AIR!
Nay, it's only fairly polluted, could also have a fair bit of ripple left if it's a DC port too from degraded electrolytes in the airplanes Alternator -> filtered/conversion and regulation device(s).
I suppose then no one has considered the benefits of having an extra finger on each hand...
One to login, and one to stick up infront of all the early posters...
Where do I sign up!
Only now when you get your laptop stolen, your fingerprint is still all over the laptop/screen/keyboard so theres no point!?!
Yeah, SUV's are a great vehicle, they allow at least some protection from the necessary trucks on our roads when things go horribly wrong in a storm or fog...
All hail SUVs...
Problem is if everyone had SUVs we wouldn't be able to walk the streets, because SUV's could/quite possibly/ be a higher killer of pedestrians..
I just don't know.
While I'm assuming that mains AC operating frequency is not brainwashing us, consider that it/may/ make us gullible, you have to admit, for the human race to sit-down and work a 9-5 job for the rest of his life/within/ a matter of 100 years does sound pretty fucked up...
ELF, 30-3000 Hz
VLF, 3-30 kHz
Oh I'm sorry did all of you overlook the fact that the/entire/ country of USA, and most of the rest of the world is/dependant/ upon 50, 60 and *enter your countries standard here* hertz frequencies?
They are emitted daily from antennas in your street or above your street, in and around your house completely covering your family like a big fudging faraday cage!!
The earth terminals which save your life/and/ rid the household of static electricity sure as hell look like a mighty fine dipole to me!
Especially when you multiply it by, oh, every house in the world with electricity.
Lets take a look at a rather interesting report:
http://www.freep.com/news/statewire/sw104732_20040 926.htm/
"
CONTROVERSY: A federal judge in Wisconsin halted construction of the system in 1984, saying more environmental and health studies were needed. A federal appeals court in Chicago overturned that decision. The Navy said it spent more than $25 million to study the impact of ELF's electromagnetic fields, which were described as similar in nature and strength to those produced by power distribution lines.
POLITICS: Within years after ELF was built, Wisconsin politicians, including U.S. Sens. Herb Kohl and Russ Feingold and the congressman who represented the Clam Lake area, Rep. Dave Obey, called for its closure."
I guarantee you from personal experience and the experiences of other people that CAFFEINE is BAD..
Cut it out completely and you won't get headaches at all, believe me it changes your life.
You're able to think clearer, you never get paranoia again and you feel more confident in your work.
I've found the only way to get off any sort of caffeine is to go cold turkey and keep off the shit for at least 2 weeks, 3 to be safe.
Surely a month of your time is worth the extra good-emotions you get?
Wouldn't it be interesting if in 6 months time Intel puts the new speeds into yet another revision and we all refuse to pay for it or at the advertised price? merely because we BEAT Intel?, by six months?
We might be able to have truly Global Internet access, being so high up provides a kick-ass way of sharing to a huge audience and being easily 'upgradable' it can move with the times.:D
I'd hate to see what happens to the people below when one comes down though, moaning and groaning....

We can't just keep going around the Solar system bashing things up that's not ours!

Fission is correct though.

According to the russians, it's not only oil and SUV's that are causing a great deal of pollution...

It's also dust.
