Ever wonder how those whacko's got onto that reality show? Despite having succeeded at the game, we don't know either. But for the curious, here is the tape that worked for us. We were the first Americans to appear on the engineering competition Junkyard Wars (Scrapheap Challenge to the rest of the world). This is the deluxe version of what we sent them.

Ever wonder how a sewing machine works? See a larger than life model constructed, and the operation demonstrated using adult humans as the working parts. (aka stupid human tricks)

Nerds speak - Have a Nerd speak at your next event. Or host your own Junkyard Wars style competition - Makes a great team building exercise. See http://www.the-nerds.org/lecture.html

    • So do I...

      That was Geo's loft. It had rooms that were each the size of my entire apartment. It was an interesting space, but (like most such things) illegal. The space was zoned industrial only, the elevator was 9-5 weekdays only (he was on the 5th floor) and the neighborhood "interesting"....

      He has since finished his Phd, and moved back to the left coast.
