Coffee table
Now I know what my hypothetical coffee table of the future looks like. The index page linked from this coffee table image has lots of stuff including an interesting equation. One small quibble. The formula should read "girls = time + money".

"The formula should read 'girls = time + money'."
1) The proof doesn't work unless the right side of the equation is "time · money".
2) "Time · money" makes sense. A girl costs $x/day, so the total girl cost is "Time with girl multiplied by $x/day" or "time · money".
(If were involved with a girl at the moment, I probably wouldn't have the time to quarrel over this geekery.)

My girl is on the road at the moment, so I have the time.
I spend all day looking at spreadsheet data trying to mine it for answers, writing equations and SQL queries to do so. I therefore am not interested in doing that now.
If that engine were to have come from a military vehicle of any sort (but preferably a WWI/II tank, then the Armorer at Castle Argghhh! wants one too!
