    Disney Creates New Mid-Air Haptic Technology

    The "Creeping Lightning" effect.

    I'll look at those effects when I am next there to try to be sure. But they could be done many ways. EL tape (Electroluminescent tape cut to a pattern) then lit elsewhere with a peppers ghost effect would work. So would a projection. If I were building it and already had the glass set up for...

    Biometric finger readers unsanitary???

    Regarding antibacterial soap: You know this bugs me. I wash my hands frequently (as a habit from a former career in the medical profession years ago) and it bothers me how hard it seems to find liquid hand soap that is NOT anti bacterial! I personally think anti bacterial soaps are helping...

    Twinkle Light Question

    The bulbs I listed above are like that. You technically could plug them into a 120v string-- they have a standard candelabra base-- but they are rated 2.5 watts at 12V --- meaning they will actually work in a 12 volt system (some 120 volt lights won't light up or will do so poorly in a 12 volt...

    Twinkle Light Question

    You sure they are 120V? Everything I found out is they are on a 12 (and sometimes 24) volt system. --Lovecraft

    Twinkle Light Question

    Ok, NOW I think I have found the bulbs. Here is the link: http://www.actionlighting.com/item-detail.asp?ID=70&MainCategory=Bulbs&Sub=G-6%20E17%20Blinking These are the 12 volt blinking individual bulbs. :D I think I will order some now and FINALLY get my tree the way I want it...

    Is it possible....

    I become a child again as soon as I pass the front gates to the kingdom. You will not be an adult until you leave-- in spite of what your age says.

    Lefthanded people are in their Right mind

    I am a lefty (for most stuff) for the rest I am ambidextrous. I draw and paint with both hands but tend to write only with the left and have a little more fine control with a pen or pencil for drawing with the left. Here is something I noticed when I was young -- most lefties, even if they...

    It's not Song of the south, but close enough

    Is anyone else disturbed by the presence of the characters: Ninja #1 and Ninja #2 In this retelling of the Brer Rabbit stories?

    THIS SUCKS! Thursday, on my way home from my office in Pensacola I was in Gulf Breeze (at the Avalon Blvd and Hwy 98 intersection for those who know the area) waiting at a traffic light when *BOOM* I felt a largish joly and heard a sickening crunch. I peered in the rear view mirror to see a...

    Oh man! That is beautiful! I always loved alfa romeo -- but back in college I let a mechanic friend talk me out of buying a spyder.. *sigh* probably a good idea with the way they broke down all the time. I also want a Lotus Elise, such a sweet looking car. BTW, anyone want to buy my...

    I experience that every so often when some yahoo in a muscle car pulls up next to my boxter wanting (I guess from the engine sounds they make) to drag race a bit. When they can keep up with me I lose 'em on the curves every time... I LOVE my mid engine Boxster S!

    Haunted Mansion Ghosts?!?!

    I think the screens in Mission Space are also fashioned with lenticular lenses to produce the 3D without need of glasses effect they have. In fact, you could produce a peppers ghost like effect with digital projections if the stereo-scopic projections are angeled correctly onto a lenticular...

    Twinkle Light Question

    Sorry to quote myself here but I think I may be on to something. On my last visit to WDW (EPCOT) I was looking at the lights again and watching how they twinkled-- At least at EPCOT, they twinkle and do not fade. They just twinkle slowly and it kinda looks like a fade (at least in memory)...

    Song of the South may be out on DVD

    Well said WDWCP. I wonder though if the Disney conservatism on this issue is even justified by people who found the film offensive in the respects we brought up here. I am not an African American, nor were my family -- at least on my father's side -- slave owners. I would love to hear the...
