Hi Y'all !

Where are my fellow science & tech minded friends, these days ?

(Gyro, you may be interested in these plans for a little homemade Stirling engine, as an addition to your Stirling web page )

Here's a neat little 'Test tube Stirling engine' you can make on your own, with some fairly simple parts :

It was good. There were no Segways.

But, any FIRST event is always good. One of the dad's on our team i =s gettting one, I think that I am more impaitent than him for him to get it. :-D Anyway, I am excited about this years competition, we already have some designs. We want to start building in 2 days.

Allright, gotta go to bed....
