And if I wanted to I could buy an Oreodont jaw for as little as £5 and half a skull for £95. But I'll save my money for more dinosaur and plesiosaur fossils. They're just more my kinda thing. _________________ THINGS I LIKE

Dear Rabbitears, you do know that all American members of WP are now aware, thanks to you, that we once had herds of sheep- sized and cow-sized long-tailed pigs all over our continent?! Thank you SO very much! Ick.

one may ask, "how much laser power do i really need to do things like pop balloons, light matches and set things afire?" a 30mw green laser is the lowest power level that will do those things at a distance of a few inches, whereas a 200mw laser will do those things at a distance of a few feet. OTOH a 1 watt+ laser will do those things from across the room. you can buy a cheap 200mw laser pointer pen [the kind that is powered by ordinary AAA alkalines] for as cheap as $10 now, online. part of their power [the cheap ones] is that they lack adequate IR filters so the unfiltered IR output of Diode-Pumped Solid State lasers is generating at least half of the rated total laser beam power output in the form of heat and is the thing which is [for the most part] doing the popping of said balloons and the lighting of said matches. the green ones are [subjectively] the brightest lasers, but the violet ones are the highest energy, at 405 nanometers wavelength. the neat thing about the violet ["black light"] lasers is that they cause many objects to glow purple from within. i have found that the 200mw lasers occupy a "sweet spot" in that they are the most powerful lasers to still be cheap and to require only ordinary AAA alkalines. go above that power level and the price climbs with alarming alacrity, plus the more powerful ones require much more expensive lithium batteries and also represent a real hazard in the wrong environment.

Not the oreodo, but the oreodont.. Seems like a sign jk
Thanks for sharing
Oh wow that was terrible!
That's okay, but damn you for sharing yours. Oreos are immense.
I'll try to share more in the near future. I like this thread but feel I neglect it at times. Makes me all guilty.... _________________ THINGS I LIKE

And they had four toes!
According to Wikipedia.
I didn't know that I had that much of an affect.

I'm just happy people still post here, though i still hope it gets stickied in they future..
Also, I've been failing to provide much trivia either so can hardly criticise others even if I wanted to.

But that's completely out of context with what Sylkat was saying.
I thought it was some sort of internet abbreviation. _________________ THINGS I LIKE

Sylkat used to think of North America as home to sweeping vistas, enormous flocks of birds, glorious old trees, and those wonderful,huge herds of buffalo (or bison), thundering across the plains.
Now Sylkat must face the sad reality of lots and lots of snorting long-tailed pigs rooting in the underbrush and rolling in the mud.
All across the continent.
