Comment on Old 16 Segment Display on top of The Great Coal Mine, Coney Island by Fuming Solder

In this particular location on the building it could be used for nothing else but advertising. But even though I don’t believe it could actually be a dynamic display (they probably had to patch every message manually with cords), it is darn impressive! I had no idea people thought of segmented displays this long ago. I guess, it really isn’t exactly rocket science, just never occurred to me they had the need. But here’s an illustration of the need, too: how would you like to climb ontop of the roof every time you need to change the message?

Comment on Moller Flying Car Enters Production by Dent

Moller is an embarrassment to the flying world. He has never produced a thing that worked. His absolute BS over the years was only to pick the pockets of investors. What a joke. There are hundreds of people who would love to get their hands on this crook. It is amusing he touts the rotary engine he sells as something special when his is just about as crude as they come. There are some nice engines built out there for a lot less money. I wonder how they manage to continue to get investors when nothing has happened in 30 years. They did hook up that junk car of theirs to a crane to pretend it was flying. What a joke.

Thanks, ZT. I watched a wrong video then So, it’s to break the bond to the glass bottom of the vat then. I keep forgetting this technique works from the bottom up and the glass is actually on the way…
