Thinking over this, Ada might have suggested that the harmonic disruptor design be subtly modified so that sound waves are generated which cancel the organist’s music and passed on to the listener’s ears – something along the vein of “Banishment Of Sound Earpieces” – B.O.S.E. :: giggle :: Sorry for being late to the site, Sydney, but I love the idea! Waiting with bated breath for the iPad app. Cheers!!

I suppose it’s not a good idea to say that the Tacoma Narrows bridge collapse was caused by aeroelastic flutter . . .

I know this because wikipedia says it is so and wikipedia is ALWAYS right, right?

I can’t tell you how much I love this comic! The only downside is that I’m sitting here chortling over how awesome Ada is, rather than writing my own steampunk novel

Oh, and please please please make the schematic of the raygun with the ‘operated by a crank’ insert into a t-shirt.

Now, go and produce more!

If c+(-c) where c = crime and crime = coercion, then -c = -coercion. -coercion = f where f = freedom. Brilliant!

Libertarianism is now proven with maths! :B

Ah, this brings back such great memories of the tale in “Gödel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid” where Hofstadter has one character producing records that destroy the other chap’s record players. It’s actually supposed to be an analogy of Gödel’s incompleteness theorem, but I like the literal idea too!
