Pa-Nuematic Pump

Pneumatics. Fun toys. How is this ... rectangular plastic sectiongs...bout 3 inches thick 5 long. Useing Pneumatics it can crawl, but not like a snake. Sort of like the Tred on a tank. It folds itself over moveing the end peice to the front. It could move into small areas. How bout something smaller than 3 inches? it just unfolds itself and it is half the thickness..once through it puts itself back together. It could even completely disconnect and spread out and come back together.

A football field that has turf that tracts the ball and players. No more measureing to see if the ball got far enough for a first down. Look at the computer screen and it shows the path of the ball in a 3d recreation. No false starts. No wondering if his knee was down or if he steped out. Infrared sensors in the ball and the shoes, and helmets receive signals from infrared emitters from the turf. giveing the exact location.

A wall that never has to be painted. A sheet of photosensitive paper covered in a thin plastic film. An electroconductive paste is painted along the back of the sheetrock with a layer of thin rubber on each side to insulate. The paper is heated different ammounts depending on what you set to make it turn any color with the twist of a knob.

Who want's to fund my research? :D

    I have no idea what you are talking about in the first idea...

    I'm not sure how the 3 paragrapsh relate, aside from infrared sensors, but it sounds like you will be a rich rich man one day. And I hope to be your mistress.

    they don't relate actually...pneumatics is air...like hydralics only it uses airpressure. they are 3 ideas.

    It would actually need to probably be heatsensitive paper...
    by hollywood at 01/28/06 2:01PM
  • thebeast
    So you could apply a certain amount of heat to decide which color you like best? It could even come with it's own heat setting so it doesn't affect the climate of the room. Oh wait you already said that.

Life...is...hard, but it is do-able i suppose. People make it hard by their actions and where their focus is, usually on themselves, Yes even you sometimes....well it sucks and it is hard and hurts royally...but i assume it gets better with age...like cheese...lets just hope right

Ok, here is the deal. If one more person says im made of money or not everyone has the money for that ill jump. It is called a job. See you do a certian task for someone and they pay you for it. Thus you make enough money to go to europe. I have a couple hundred dollars...that is it. I don't have the money to go. I am going to work and save that money. Anyone who wants to come has the same chance.

Looks like I will though. Wasn't a good idea was it.


Ok.

I can't get an answer from anyone. So, here it is. Summer '07 I am going to Europe. I need traveling companions. I have to plan so far.

England first. London, Manchester, Liverpool. Buckingham palace, Museums, London Tower, London Dungeon, House of Parlament, London Eye.

Next take a train to either The Netherlands, Belgium, or France.

Cheapest ticket from ABQ to London is $650. They do go on sale from time to time though. I never checked from ATL or anywhere else.

Things that can change is depending on who can/wants to come are the time we go. It is cheaper to go outside of the summer months and I thought fall would be cool as well. That would mean someone who have to skip some school or be done with school. There are the 3 places to decide where to take the train to. I haven't found the price of train tickets yet.

Lodging:

Well, a few options exsist. Youth Hostels. These are decently cheap, but you share the rooms with strangers. You can get private rooms, but they cost a bit more.

Also, takeing trains at night and getting a sleeping car saves on money for a place to stay and saves daylight we could use exploreing.

They rent homes in Europe for decent prices and you can rent for a day or a week or whatever. Split between a few people would be a nice place to stay and may save money in the end.

I keep it now just to see what is up with yall and maybe make fun of a few people to lighten myself up. life goes on with or without someone commenting on my blog or forgetting or not forgetting about me. there is a difference between forgotten and not thought about...thanks for commenting though haha im on my way to 45 or whatever ;)
