One of the very few really cool URLs the Jimster sent to the list was for a home-made plasma ball. I wanted to tell others about it, but the URL stopped working shortly after the Jimster gave it out. I heard he doesn't like to receive mail from people (individuals), so I didn't email him. Anyone have a working URL for the plasmoid ball?
URL? We don't need no stinking URL. (it was on /.) You take a toothpick and place it on a holder. Light it. Place a large glass bowl (a fishbowl is acceptable) over the burning toothpick with something holding the bowl off the floor of the microwave (so the toothpick stays lit). Crank up the microwave on high for about 10 seconds. Walah. I don't mind receiving inquiries for help from individuals on specific topics or goals. What I specifically object to is people trying to take my public discussion private. From my perspective such discussion is useless for giving ideas public exposure and wastes a lot of my time that I'd rather spend doing other things. In short, don't expect to get into long drawn out discussions in private email unless I've known you for quite a while. Enjoy the plasma ball...(hint: try a screen) ____________________________________________________________________ To speak algebraically, Mr. M. is execrable, but Mr. G. is (x+1)-ecrable.
