  2. Say what you want,..
      I watched my stepfather douse a 3 acre plot when our well ran dry, not only did he map the underground routes the water took, he found the best spot to dig, and was able to determine how deep it was within 6 inches, and that well NEVER ran dry, even in the dry-est of summers, as an engineer, I still marvel at this feat.

  12. Nice try, but.. on Building an 'Invisibility Cloak' With Electromagnetic Fields · · Score: 1

    We have had this tech for over 40 years! Track Break Notch will do similar things by either walking a radar off you, or move your position according to what the radar can see.
    The bigger problem is millimeter band radar, you need really funky waveguides to broadcast these as a normal antenna can't cope the small wave frequency.
    The A6 from the Navy and the EF-111A from the USAF both could manage similar things to this, I can only hope they have managed to it smaller as the units for each section of bandwidth were the size of a small coffin, and you needed LOTS to cover the threat assessment for a given area.
    Smells more like grant sniffing to me..

    Was bluffing all this time, how ironic would it be if just the rumor of Apple coming out with this caused multiple vendors to blow all that R&D and production on a product no one really wants.
    Hate Apple all you want, but there really is no substitute for being the king of the hill...

  16. Re:Tax Credit? on Car Dealers Complain To DMV About Tesla's Website · · Score: 1

In addition to the short season, you had to contend with either small black Midges that really leave a welt, or the garden variety industrial size mozzies that take turns trying to bust in the window if they catch a wiff of your C02. Ahhh the good ol days....
