Bill,
You said: Why does the NSS keep publishing books that nobody has ever read?
As a proofreader/editor/writer myself, I think the question should be, why do
authors think they can publish a book without a proofreader and an editor? My
experience is that I am my own worst proofreader.
There were two messages to me from me in my inbox this a.m. They both
purported to be from MSN. I sent them both off to the phishing scam hell that
Hotmail maintains. The apples didn't fall far from the tree in my case.
Beware!!! BWA-HA-HA-HA!!!

If you follow anti-virus and trojan news any at all, you will see
hundreds or thousands of new ones introduced daily. Symantec, McAfee
and all of the major antivirus vendors keep up to date on them. As
Don said, never open up attachments, even from people you know.

If you or someone you know went with me to the McLarrin Fissure Karst last
weekend and I borrowed your compass, I have it. Let me know your name and
where you are and I can get it back to you.

David, how heavy is it? Did the packaging mention a weight (doubtful)
or did you see any specs on the web for it?

Nico,
That post was the most interesting to ever appear on OT ( IMHO ).
However, I always thought the problem with the ultra-capacitors was
size, and that the unit would never fit
into the housing of a flashlight.
Let's hope it works and lets hope somebody builds a headlamp.
On a related
Is the Ultracapitor similar to a fluxcapacitor? So if you get a lot of
superbright LED's that are powered by a fluxcapacitor and get it to spin at
a high velocity, will it make you
A. Go back in time?
B. Go forward in time?
C. Smell like spent carbide as it heats up?
D. Blow up in a microfarad
Advantages to Super Capacitors:
1. Can be used and recharged millions of time.
2.Low impedance - enhances load handling when put in paralleled
with a battery.
( I think this means a flashlight could be designed to run
longer with less batteries )
3.Re-charge in seconds.
4.
Ultracapacitors are what's used in the shake and shine flashlights.
Remember those? Maybe not so ultra - but a capacitor, neverthesless
