    Default the laser transmitter turns 50 today!

    this is a great read and embodies the smart hacker/engineer/hobbyist spirit that makes PL so much fun.

    *it would not surprise me if edetic has this laser in his basement.
    suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness.

    Very interesting! Thanks for posting. Looks to me like they used a Sylvania plasma tube. I sent an email to start the hunt.
