The Peanut Conspiracy

Darrell sent me this email yesterday:

This is a neat article about how a researcher has developed allergy free peanuts.

The possibilities in what this would mean for food production are phenomenal… and the lives it could save WOW!

Here’s my conspiracy theory take on it…

Paint-On Solar Panels

Gadget Lab is one of my daily blog reads. They're part of the Wired blog network, a group of blogs geared towards everything that has to do with technology.

Today, one of their posts had to do with a new development in Solar Panel technology:

"Researchers at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) have come up with a way to make paint-on solar cells. Instead of using pricey silicon to make panels, the boffins use organic solar cells, made from cheap polymers." -- read the rest of this story here.

This is an exciting development! Imagine the application! You could paint this stuff onto cars, homes, buildings, etc... In essence, every available paintable surface could be generating power!

Now, I wonder how safe this stuff is...

The Chipmunks Teaser

A little while ago I wrote about the lack of originality in Hollywood these days and while I still maintain that opinion, what I failed to also mention is that—like many other movie-goers—I'm a sucker for anything remotely nostalgic.

So, while my head screams at me warnings not to get too excited about a film like this, my heart always holds out hope that it could be good. After all...it is Jason Lee...

Who am I kidding...this movie is going to suck chipmunk chunks...and the music franchise that will come of it...I shudder to think...

Who else am i kidding...I'll be there opening day...I'm so weak...
