} This is a thirty plus something minutes video of a Rube Goldberg-style

Wasn't there something like this being shown, just a few months ago,
here at the Media Lab?

Lots of water, steam, rolling tires, candles, gasoline, and other RRvC
amusements. Techno-fun.

If it wasn't the same, then there's *TWO* of 'em, and we should get 'em
both!

By the Way: Hey! Are the Boston-area SubG planning any kind of "Blowing
Things Up!" party for the Froth of July? Should we be?
