  • rmminusr, on 07/31/2008, -0/+0Hmm, I guess none of my above diggers have ever seen the amazing brushless, 3-Phase, permanent magnet, electric motors used in RC helicopters and airplanes. These things are the smaller than a bear can and produce 3+ horsepower with an 80% duty cycle. You know that electric car everyone on wants, you need this to get them.

    Mmmmmm. Magnets.

  • chinaboyintexas, on 07/30/2008, -5/+0Damn. I read it as "Scientists find quick method to make midgets"...

    I applaud scientists for once again finding ways to give me an easier, more cost effective, and a generally more awesome (in that "I-don't-really-get-what-this-all-means-but-it-sounds-good" sorta way) life. However, I'm gonna have to go with "buried" as I'd much rather see you all quickly make midgets.
