Clever. I like it.

That's what we have IQ for.
 
I showed videos of this guy to someone last year who persistently tried to convince me that ancient civilisations had anti-gravity technology and that's how the pyramids, stone henge and the modern day coral castle were built.

This guy is ingenious! I would have never thought of that. I suppose people back then had a fair amount of time to think after they collected their food and because they lacked reality tv.
 
That was very cool.

Thread 'In the early days of electricity, they didn't have wall plugs'

Hello scientists, engineers, etc. I have not had any questions for you recently, so have not participated here. I was scanning some material and ran across these 2 ads. I had posted them at another forum, and I thought you may be interested in them as well. History is fascinating stuff! Some houses may have had plugs, but many homes just screwed the appliance into the light socket overhead. Does anyone know when electric wall plugs were in widespread use? 1906 ad DDTJRAC Even big...
