I like the G2 Mini because they fit nicely into my jeans pocket, but don’t see the need for yet another G2 recommendation so I starred yours instead. Which reminds me - time to get another 4 pack from Amazon.

I didn’t go see that silly stunt. But what about it pissed you off?

I recall reading somewhere that the weight of paint on a 747 is about 500 lbs, so that seems about right.

I love the shuttles as much as anyone. More than many, perhaps - I went to LA just to see it moved through the streets. I think he has some valid points though. The shuttle never did deliver on the low cost space exploration promise - perhaps it might have if we had continued with it. And I think it is unfair to blame…

Why doesn’t this have more stars?

Coalinga is not “the middle of nowhere”. It’s the bullshit capital of the US. Or at least, that’s what it smells like every time I drive past it on I5. Harris Ranch there is where they truck in the cattle to be fattened before slaughter.

Probably alcohol.

I’m disappointed he didn’t dress up as Santa Claus (or even an elf) for the protest.

Wow, someone still remembers how to write code in Apple ][ Basic :) That sure brings back some memories.

There were a lot of worries at one time that some of the Stinger missiles provided to the Mujahadeen might have made its way into the hands of terrorists, and the CIA had to buy them back. I hope we’re not embarking on the same path again, but I’m pessimistic.

I gave him one just for you :)

Yeah, in the few years since then, I saw that someone made an actual device and posted pics online. This is why we can’t have nice things.

I agree. But argue not with narrow minded bureaucrats. Best to just look contrite, apologize, and let them win. Unless you are in a position of power. But they will hate you and try to pull you down next time if you humiliate them.

I can see him charging you with vandalism or some anti-graffiti thing, but “possession of bomb making material” is just so stupid.

Assuming a conservative 4 miles per kWh, that’s 62.5 kWh in 15 minutes, or an average charging power of 250 kW. Doesn’t look like something that’s going to happen at home. Not until we all get our own Mr Fusion anyway.

I think I played that flash game.

Thanks for the info! I’ll check when I get home.

You can use either a mercury switch, or a magnetic reed switch, to detect the garage door position as well. But I like having the garage door opener report it to you directly. I wonder if my opener has those outputs...
