Custard
I'm swamped with clutter but I'm not a collector, and
I never decorate my place. I'm utilitarian. If a
handgun doesn't work I'm not interested in it unless I
realize I can repair it. If it works and is too
expensive I'm again not interested in it, cause, in a
way, it wouldn't work for me. For me the only good
thing about a gun is to shoot an armed psycho, an
armed burglar, armed robber, etc with it. That' the
only good thing I see in guns. The rest is trouble and
danger, especially if kids are in the house.
Samantha Koenig needed a handgun by her cash register
to shoot Keyes in the face with. Hannah Graham needed
a little handgun hidden inside her tight pants that
night.
Stuff I'm interested are not decorations, they all
have utilitarian value to them.
Wasn't it you few days ago who reported what had
happened to that university professor? That professor
needed to have a loaded gun on him... Then he might
have survived it. I give it a good chance the psycho
sat and talked to him for a good while before killing
him. I give it a good chance the psycho let the
professor know what he was about to do to him a good
amount of time before carrying it out. The professor
needed a gun that "works".

Capitalist opportunity passing you buy, nay, boldly rejected! Actually $200 is still VERY cheap for a flawless quartz ball of that size. You should have grabbed it. Rumor has it they are great ESP enhancers! There was some rock place going out of business years ago and was selling their stock of flawless quartz balls. Prices were about $200 for maybe a 3 or 4 incher. Prices rise astronomically as size increases. Which brings up the story that I once did a road trip to the Philadelphia museum to peruse the Mayan stelae there. Well, one of the VERY cool exhibits (having nothing to do with Maya) was the crystal ball made for the dowager empress of china (about 1900 or so) It was HUGE, single crystal flawless quartz maybe 12-14" in diameter ground into a perfect sphere. A tour was coming through and the guide showed how the sphere was so perfect you see the light directly over it at the point at the bottom of the sphere. Anyway that was MANY years ago and maybe a year or two ago I read in the papers that the museum had a break in and that crystal ball was one of the things taken. They've never found it. Someone gave me a quartz crystal ball once but it's only 2" or so in diameter and filled with flaws.

I've done some quartz carving and it's seriously tough stuff and I was using modern tools not rubbing it with sand or whatever the Egyptians did.

It didn't even enter my mind. As I said below I felt like the engineer in the guillotine joke afterward, and don't make me tell it again. > Actually $200 is still VERY cheap for a flawless quartz ball of that > size. You should have grabbed it. Well, I didn't really want one, it was just interesting to me that they thought it was glass. Cheap now but average back then- this was thirty or so years ago and that was all the new age niche market of the day would bear. > Rumor has it they are great ESP > enhancers!

Prices rise astronomically as size > increases. More if they have antique provenance- I live in a town full of antique shops and some of the stuff they carry... but again, it depends on demand. I can't afford any of the glassware people come from literally hundreds of miles away to peruse (one shop specializes in uranium glass) but I snatched up a 1950's violet ray machine that works (which is to say the Oudin coil still puts out a solid 40KV at ~5 mA) for ten bucks. > Which brings up the story that I once did a road trip to the > Philadelphia museum to peruse the Mayan stelae there.

I vaguely recall something about that. The same ancient techniques are used today to make such spheres but apparently the easy-to-get-to large-chunk quartz has been mined out. I have nothing against good clean synthetics though; just as pretty. Right now I have some ADP slowly growing in a jar in my basement. > Someone gave me a quartz crystal ball once but it's only 2" or so in > diameter and filled with flaws. (flaws prevent me from learning what > people really believe!) I've got one like that, and not necessarily according to some. I've gotten no results at all though.

Before I bought my first CRC I once made the error of thinking I could get away with a diamond grit Dremel bit under water. Turned out I had the rate-of-material-removal vs. heat-removal-rate ratio figured too optimistically. I wound up making two pieces instead of the one I originally had in mind. Oh well, live and learn. Mark L. Fergerson

Yes, I have a serious collection of quack machines! There is this antique mall down the street and one of the vendors somehow used to get his hands on them all the time. And given that the only market is to "kooks and nerds" prices were very low. Hence, every time a cool one showed up, I'd end up with it. I've got them from huge floor models to popular "violet ray" ones like yours complete with original manual describing how to cure "brain fag" and the like! I've got some I've seen pictures of in science history books (though mine are missing a couple of parts) Virtually all of my quack machines still work! They don't build things like they used to! Speaking of which I've got this 1920's RCA radio on the wall as a decorator item and the other day I turned it on just for grins. It still plays fine! Compare that to the pile of dead computers in my basement some of which are just a few years old.

Ask for your money back How do you know it didn't work? I don't even know what "brain fag" is. Perhaps you could explain it to us?

Ask for your money back How do you know it didn't work? I don't even know what "brain fag" is. Perhaps you could explain it to us? -------------- It's simple. 'Brain fag' means brain fatigue. In other words, a kook. Since you are still a kook, and one may even argue a kook of the first water, the machine failed in its primary purpose. Seek a refund and go with Christ

Does your brain ever get fatigued? Does that then make you a kook?
