One thumbs up
b1-66er: Just tried calling you.
Many rings. No answer.
I was merely calling to say hi.
Special K: We were watching Spartacus. Still are - it's 3.5 hours.
b1: Watching the movie, itself, is like a gladiation event.
K: I'm loving it so far. Never saw any part of it before.
b1: Not even IRL?
K: Nuthin.
b1: So THAT'S one way we're different.
K: Seeing Spartacus?
b1: No.
Having parts of your life being like a gladiation event.
K: Ah.

b1-67er: While helping out at MPC we did a project for a company developing submersible floats for lobster traps. You send a low frequency pound signal in the water to release the floats. So the fisherman goes out, triggers the floats, they raise to the surface and he retrieves them. It minimizes wale entanglement
It has a knock on benefit. People steeling or raiding your lobster traps is such a big problem fisherman go out just to watch their traps.

b1-67er: There are a bunch of rare snails in the Everglades, some native only to a single clump of trees. Many are in trouble because shell collectors poach them for their exotic patterns.

When your nuts shell
b1-66er: The K said Mr. Kimmel was fabulous as the Oscars opener.
He's right.
Must view.
D4rw1n: Looking forward to viewing this. I have watched Kimmel's opening monologue about three out of five nights per week for the last year (delayed, on YouTube). I also watch Seth Myers, Jimmy Fallon, and Stephen Colbert (on about the same rough frequency using the same platform). I think for the last year Kimmel has been consistently the sharpest
Myers is by far the most surreal. Especially a weekly segment (which I watch pretty religiously) entitled Corrections. It's self-referential bordering on inscrutable, self-deprecating bordering on masochistic, meta bordering on incomprehensible, and wry bordering on unfunny. Which together is super-original and somehow always makes me laugh
Plumbing your belt

b1-67er: A Couple of things could be better on that belt Loader. They connect the belt with a set of wire hoops on each side with a pin through the middle. Those connectors can be dangerous bastards if they get damaged. Imagine a bunch of stiff wires sticking out every which way to grab your clothes and drag you around the belt.
Also the lift cylinder has a bunch of plumbing external on the cylinder. That should all be integrated into the cylinder. Cheaper, safer, more reliable.
