Harlan is a master at the rant, and has great public speaking delivery. He was guest of honor at a local sci fi con a while back, and I even got personlly bitched out by him. He took objection to the Pan Galactic Ghetto Blaster http://red4est.com/pggb And the fact that people were partying and making noise at a con after he wanted to go to sleep at 9 or 10PM. The pggb is a fun project. I wanted a portable sound system with decent power and sound quality for dancing to, so I made a 100W/ch boombox. I recently pulled the 35AH gelcell out of it, because it could only run at reasonably high volume for about 45-50 minutes, so I ended up never running it off the internal battery. So I pulled it and saved 20lbs. -- The fastest way to get your question answered on the net is to post the wrong answer.
