Mad Science Warning (FunFun..)

[Dan Goldstein]

I have put together the pieces for a very rudimentary arc lamp(torch).
I will bring it tonight to play with. I have not tried it yet...

If you have welding goggles/helmet bring them since this thing might
get very bright..(Or not.. but better safe than ... blind )

Also if you have a large parabolic reflector that you might donate to
the project bring it.
Also I think putting this thing in a metal drum would be good
eventually. Anyone have a
30 gallon metal drum? The exact size might depend on what kind of
reflector I can find.

"There is nobody in this country who got rich on his own. Nobody. You
built a factory out there - good for you.

But I want to be clear. You moved your goods to market on the roads
the rest of us paid for. You hired workers the rest of us paid to
educate. You were safe in your factory because of the police forces
and the fire forces that the rest of us paid for. You didn't have to
worry that marauding bands would come and seize everything at your
factory...

Now look. You built a factory and it turned into something terrific or
a great idea - God bless! Keep a big hunk of it. But part of the
underlying social contract is you take a hunk of that and you pay
forward for the next kid who comes along."
