Subject: [alt-beam] re: mercury switches
be *careful* with mercury tilt switches, they make great alarms and
motion detectors (bike alarms). But remember people its mercury,
liquid metal, and *highly toxic*, be very careful with them
especially the glass ones. It seeps through skin, enters your blood
and bye bye beamer. but don't worry too much, muhahahahahahaha
by the way, just thought i'd make you drool, i just remembered my
mums friend is a robotic engineer for NASA, last i heard he was
making a 'bot that zipped around space using liquid nitrogen as
thrust.
