Let's see here... Under the peanut brittle? Nope. Monkey's elbow... Shoestring potatoes... Hey, a can of hamdingers! Nope, no Interociter. A Spirograph... I know it's around here somewhere. No, it's not there. Oh, there's my Etch-a-Sketch. The trackball that never worked... Hot tomales... Another can of hamdingers... Mike: Why all the underpants, Ser... vo? Servo: Oh, these. Heh. I collect 'em. Mike: Huh. Crow: Hey, a chainsaw! Mike: Wait a second! Servo, you do have an Interociter. Crow: Huh? Servo: I've been using it to make hot chocolate. Crow: Well, let's see what this baby can do. (Turns on interociter) Benkitnorf: She'll be ridin' six white horses, she'll be... Aah! Mike, Crow and Servo: Aah! Servo: Oh! Benkitnorf: Man, you guys scared the living daylights outta me. Mike: It's working. Hey, is Exeter there? Benkitnorf: Nah, him and Brack went down to Headbutt Days for Shelly. I gotta meet him in the beer tent in about fifteen minutes, so I gotta get going. Servo: No, wait! We're trapped in space. Can we use this thing to get back down to Earth? Benkitnorf: I don't know. Geez. Maybe this does something. Servo: Aah! Benkitnorf: Crap. That's not it. Hang on. Servo: Cough, cough... Benkitnorf: Okay, did you use the Intensifier Disc? Mike, Crow and Servo: Yes. Benkitnorf: Turn the controls 18 degrees to the left? Mike, Crow and Servo: Did that. Benkitnorf: Are you in Europe? Do you need an adapter? Mike, Crow and Servo: No. Benkitnorf: Well, look. I don't know anything about this thing. Maybe this does somethin'. Servo: No! Benkitnorf: Oops, that didn't work. Okay, well I'll be sure to tell Exeter that you called! Bye. Crow: No, wait! Servo: Hold on! Mike: You have to help us! Dr. F: Wait, help! Auntie Em, Auntie Em! Surprise. Like who doesn't have an Interociter, you collective heads of knuckle? Now get back into that theater, you ninny-hammers! And remember, I know who you are, and I saw what you did! I'm the God. I'm the God!

FWIW, Fort Sill nearby is home to 90% of the original UNIVAC (or is it ENIAC?) vacuum tube computer. The other 10% is at the Smithsonian.

Posts: 10973 From: Lawton, OK, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 03-18-2004 05:12 PM                     For those who don't know, the ENIAC was one of the first computers ever made, with every data bit having to be processed by a vacuum tube. The computation power of ENIAC was comparable to an old pocket calculator, and the thing in its entirety fit in a very large room (much larger than any room we've seen in the home setup photos of this thread). This is why the Smithsonian has only 10% of it and the other 90% of it stored aboard Fort Sill. Money is being raised (both public and private) for the construction of the "U.S. Army Museum of the Southwest". Honestly, this will be THE REAL museum for the Army, but the brass back in Washington doesn't want po-dunk Lawton and Fort Sill to have those bragging rights technically. Plans are to have the ENIAC cleaned up and put on display as one of the attractions. Fort Sill has the world's largest collection military weapons and other memoriabilia. The post also has a large collection of Great Plains 1800's cultural items no other museum can equal. But much of this stuff is in storage, not on public view. Hopefully the fund-raising goals will be met soon so this highly impressive collection can be enjoyed by many.  |  IP: Logged Paul G.

Hoever, now I realize that my desk with only hold a certain amount of trash before it falls off the edge, so I strategically placed the trash cans to catch the trash. Not really, but I only clean when I should be doing homework or something else important. You don't want to see the rest of the room.  |  IP: Logged Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 03-19-2004 07:21 AM                       quote: your desktop has a picture of one of Japan`s most famous porn stars.
