Status: offline 		          So this viral video went around my office late this afternoon.  Several clips of people sitting around a table, popping kernels of corn with a small array of cell phones.  In a blatant abuse of our employers time and money, we spent well over a man-hour watching the video, and trying it ourselves, without success.  (If anybody should call us on it, we'll claim it was a unity and esprit building exercise.  Besides, it was stressy day, and we all needed a laugh.)

Here is a segment of what we got

From what I "hear" the radar in an EA-6 can fry a Coyote too, but I wouldnt know anything about that. Because well, we never tried anything like that. never. ever. nope.

Actually kind of funny, but I have a plate in my head, some times it will "tingle" before the phone rings.

Status: offline 		Oh there is a guy calling himself the "household hacker' and comes up with all sorts of little experiments, but none of them will actually work.  I saw a video where he claimed that you could run a television off of a 9-volt battery, which was just bullshit.  Televisions are AC, and you can't run it from a DC source without a converter.  You can't just hook up the power prongs to a 9-volt. 

I don't know why people find it so amusing to put out these ridiculous little hoaxes.

Fire control radars are also most excellent for this purpose....
