    While we are off topic their is this guy named linsey , a missonary to oil pipeline
    workers in the seventies, in Alaska.
    Claims that they found enough oil on a place called Gunar island to last the US for 200 years. THEY CAPPED IT.
    And that they use 48 jet engines to pump natural gas BACK into the ground at the main
    drillin site there.
    Guy has several videos on youtube.
    Meanwhile gas will be 200 a barrel at the end of the year

    Is this the same guy that invented a internal combustion engine that runs on water? Sounds like urban legend to me.

    Bfd

    I can't find Kex's discussion about the advantages of the BFD in this thread or his LPA-1 thread, but in any event, are you guys talking about this one:



    This is selling at Parts Express right now for $99.00. That's cheap!

    Any BFD will do but it's always been in around the $100 range or better if you shop. That looks like it.
    It's quite ugly, and does wonders...

    Hes wrote a few books and has a five part speech on youtube, names Linsey.
    Was a Baptist minister in the 70's tending to oil pipeline workers, got to know some of the execs.
    SAYS THAT SINCE OIL IS A PART OF EVERYTHING, that it was decided in the sixties that it would be the medium used to control the world.
    READ and watch his stuff and judge for yourself.
    There is a guy selling hydrogen kits BTW, electrolosizes water, and uses the hydrogen to
    extend the cars gas mileage, such cars get up to 80 mpg.
    The science behind this is solid, and hes selling a lot of kits

    They're BLACK! Black as the... wait a minute. I better not say that. Worf's been hangin' 'round these parts recently. I'm already in deep doodoo with him and his Romulian friends.

    I do think though that at some point I'm going to replace the surrounds with these because the current P6 floorstanders are becoming troublesome from a placement standpoint. I'd buy these CM-1's w/o the stands and put them on shelves.

    Nothing wrong with black, as long as it goes with the rest of your decor. Let's see them in their natural habitat.

    Well, right now the entire room is apart. I'm in the process of getting the hole in my ceiling repaired so I can go to closing on my mortgage re-fi. The fix will be finished tomorrow and I should have all components in place shortly thereafter.

    I predict that some day I'll be finished fussin' with this room and I'll finally be able to just sit down with a hot babe and enjoy the fruits of my labor.

    Hot babe? You found a hot babe? You been holding out on your AR friends? Does she like audio? Does she like all that extra head room that your new beefy amp gives you?
    Come on. Spill the beans Rich guy from Texas.

    Did you get her name? Her number? An idea of when you'll see her again?
    And DOES SHE LIKE MUSIC?!

    YEAH , those holes in the roof really cut down on the loan value.
    But theres a downside to everything, you're "babe" wont be so hot when the air conditioning stops escaping from the roof .
    AND you have these great speakers and you're STILL not satisfied?

    The "hole" was in the ceiling dingus. The only heat that was escaping from the hole was from the babe.

    I hope you have a big room...

    I know some people, who own a pair, and they use them in a small (5m x 4m) room, and it didn't sound that good...

    at the dealer they sounded waaaay better though...

    yet, my personal taste would lean to a pair of thiels, or a pair of Avalons...
