    I suppose defective was a poor choice of words, BTU you know what I meant.

    Off the wall question

    I recall that left-handed dominance it is a genetic defect. I'm not sure if there is a left/right brain correlation to any aptitude. You'd need to look at large sample numbers.

    Nichia Develops 60 Lumen Per Watt White LED

    It looks like they might be fine if you can live with the limited color temp and abeam anlge options. The Halogen are usually about 950 lumens, so the overall output should be OK. Can you buy a couple for comparison with your curent setup? That's the only way to be sure.

    Best movie you've seen

    1 1/2 hours of watching anything StarWars is a fate that should be reserved for torturing prisoners, never voluntarily.

    I need a mouse

    Can't you find some leftover stock somewhere on the interwebs? I had to use one of the Logotech ball-mouse things many years ago and it practically ruined my thumb. The ergonomics were just awful for me, but I guess somebody liked them enough.

    HD capacity to double by 2016

    Several different numbers are being bandied about, including the theoretical. I doubt there will be 60TB drives in my lifetime. A few years ago SSDs were all the rage with claims they would be replacing hard drives even in the high capacities.

    HD capacity to double by 2016

    :rofl: Of course compared to the total capacity the STR will be even slower than on current drives. It will take practically forever to completely write or test a drive.

    Grippy pad!

    Most of the interesting parts of the world are not accessible by paved roads. Hiking, flying, swimming, etc. are often necessary to reach the location. A truck or good SUV gets one within striking distance.
