  1. Water injection is just another scam. Water injected into the fuel will violently explode into steam when the spark ignites the mixture. Mecahnics use it sometimes to try to clean carbon out of the cylinders with the shockwaves. The pressure trying to keep the water liquid is insignificant compared to the thousands of degrees it gets heated to during the fuel/air explosion.
  2. Learn masonary and plastering.
  3. Actually, the speed of sound in helium at one atmosphere is less than it is in air. The speed of sound goes down with density.
  4. Get one of those perpetual motion drinking birds and wire it with contacts that engage at different points of it's motion. Really! You people have no imagination.
  5. Dang. And here I've been carving out the copper with an exacto knife for thirty years. Somebody might have told me about etching before.
  6. I did with a shop vac and plywood. It crashed a lot.
  7. OK. Without the math. You're describing the equivilent of generating energy by rolling a ball down a hill and carrying it back up again. Maybe God can create energy out of nothing, but I suspect that even he follows the rules. Changing free hydrogen and oxygen into water by burning it and taking it back apart again is perpetual motion. It don't work. And oil and gas and coal are all stored solar energy. They were made through photosynthesis a long time ago.
  8. It doesn't have to be water. Andthing that conducts enough electricity in a short enough will heat up and explode.
  9. 4,856,985.36
  10. Since when has any artist needed a practical purpose for their art? Anthropologists are always trying to come up with some logical explanation for everything people did. They were people, you know. They were as smart as any of us, wondered at the stars and had and probably had the same love of creating beautiful things as any artist.

    deja vu

    I remember the second time I had deja vu.
  12. There's no need to break the circuit to measure current if you know the value of the resistor. Just measure the voltage and use the formula.
  13. Daylight savings time confuses my chickens.
  14. They can become real and be seen if you seperate them before they collapse back into nothing. All you need is a gravitational field that varies so much over such a short distance that they're seperated before they can recombine. Near a small black hole, for instance. One particle falls into the hole and one escapes. Of course to pay for creating that particle out of nothing, the black hole has to give up some mass. I think I'll call it Hawking radiation.
  15. Yer all wrong. It's Archimedes.
