That is one of the SMARTEST ideas iv'e come accross.We DO have air conditioning in our house, but it is evaporative, and gets EXTREMELY humid inside. It keeps the house fairly cool, except my room which doesn't have a vent in it. I will try making that this summer, because in Western Australia in summer - temperatures can rise over 35 degrees to 45 degrees. (Celcius that is)I might make a few for my holiday house ... Cos we don't have air con there.Thanks for the link man, your a legend.

Oops.. Sorry that was the OLD design I'm getting the new design now....

What do you think? New Xbox 360 - Rival to the PS3 I'm trying to find the stats now.... Not sure how powerful it is.. Discuss your Thoughts?

I was watching a television program a few nights ago called 'Beyond Tommorow'.They had a segment on about a engeneering breakthrough. A university in North America have discovered that a unique sea eel (Lamp Eel) has INDIVIDUAL nerve centres in every part of it's spinal cord. The university started to study the nerve waves and record it, transfer it to digital data and then send it into an artificial robot. These nerve waves made this robot walk in a human-like way.Soon this university plans to make two microchips to implant in the broken spinal cord of a paraplegic person (One to send and one to recieve). And make them walk once again.Amazing, huh?! Discuss your thoughts..
