nice thoughts. Now, I have no idea what I'm talking about, but i imagine the brain of a red-blind person wouldn't have a fully developed pathway to "see" red. I'd guess that after being exposed to a new stimulus, the pathway would slowly de

yep, engine hoists are v. necessary. Also, always rent a drywall lift when doing ceilings.

yeah, i was all proud of myself for hosting a new engine in my car last weekend and getting everything lined up and bolted together. Thought it was an impressive feat. Now, not so much.

Get in touch with the guys who were working on imthere.com. Similar idea, the site was very nice. It seems to be on hiatus, though. You might want to find out why.

I just finished David Forrest Wallace's Infinite Jest and was surprised that is was sci-fi. DFW was such a literary golden boy, i think people don't mention that IJ was a sci-fi book to avoid belittling him. total crap, if you ask me.

I always thought that's why most systems have a single subwoofer. What's the album with the hard panned bass? I'd love to hear it (or know why they chose to do that)

that's very interesting. I had learned that no one bothers to pan bass frequencies because IRL they are difficult to localize. For example, no one at a live show could tell you if the bass rig is on stage right or left. So, a recording wit

Michelle is on the right track (ex guitar teacher here.) The SRS advice above is nice, but a lot of guitar playing is simply well-developed muscle memory. I got good because the guitar was always on the couch by the TV. I'd pick it up ever

He's right. Find the Technology Transfer office today and tell them what you're working on. Likely they won't be interested and will be happy to give you something in writing that says they refuse all rights.
