@Odin: you're so wrong on so many levels. Chuck Schumer is a pleaser of constituents. One of the most just and true to his word senators we've ever had short of a kennedy.

@FThorn: I think you jest. There's little funding in research right now. It's all going into unemployment checks.

@Ben R:Exactly. Plus, it's a pretty good design at this price point. Keep it simple and cheap.

@jakemiles: Cool :)

@TheFu: I have a quad espresso in the morning. That's pretty much it. Though I've been known to eat those espresso chocolate bean things when they're lying around.

@nirreskeya: :D sort of why i said that.

@Kevin Purdy: This is all general knowledge to me as I'm a biomedical researcher. But I could definitely shoot you some primary literature links when I have some free time tomorrow. Unfortunately, biochemistry requires my full attention at the moment.

srsly who needs a fucking screen just hop in your car and look at its screen.

@Kevin Purdy: correct. acute withdrawal, crash. fix. repeat.

@microinjectionist: This is why marathon runners achieve a 25% increase in endurance when sucking on a coffee bean.

There is a lot of dated material in this review. In the scientific community we constantly write reviews that sum up all of the past and current research. This is missing essentially every piece of work done in the last FIFTEEN years.

@MacAttack: Did you make it? Or find it?!!!! OR had you seen it before and thought: PERFECT!!!!

@AreWeThereYeti: The nanoscopic architecture of the plant chloroplast microenvironment guarantees that light from any angle can be captured. This is on top of the fact that light harvesting complex (LHC-I/ and II) multimeric protein complexes can absorb photons from any angle and direct it towards the porphyrin ring…

@Igor Neumann: That stupid tree concept has been posted and PSed to death. Let it lie dying. The idea with a solar charger is to have all panels on the same plane, perpendicular to the sun. That cannot happen with this highly flawed, albeit aesthetic, design.

did she drink the fermented remains of her bathtub experiment while mushing this masterpiece together?

@tomsomething: No, the airflow would prevent significant condensation. Typically u get condensation on the outside of tubes full of cold air, but not the cooling foil itself... again due to the flow of air.

@webdevmike: what on earth about this setup screams appendage hazard to you?

@vuvuzelafox: Knowing the international pharmacy manufacturing industry you'll be able to import it well within a year from - well, I'll just say it - China.

this would make an epic parabolic solar thermal collector array

Wendy, that symbol does not mean radioactive waste. Just radioactivity.
