"methane mosh-pit"  lol

(me imagining bean-eating straight-edgers with bowel problems)

Nice pictures. I think this event has a good capability to grow big... science-geeks and speed-devil meet and greet kinda thing. Science and engineering becoming 'kewl' again... That kind of stuff.

Re: X-Prize Cup Photos

I thought the X-Prize Cup was in Oct 2007. Why is it a year early?

They are trying to turn it into a 21st century Nascar - something that people plan for and go to every year - and then sell the broadcast rights to raise cash until they can start selling tickets to orbit.  Good luck to them!

Re: X-Prize Cup Photos

that's not what I intended at ALL!:lol: lol

Heehee, i  know, but having (mis-)spent a great deal of my youth near club-stages, I have seen so many moshpits, a good deal of them filled with selfrighteous, arrogant Straight Edgers... And we making fun of them... It just jumped into my mind...
