do you have more 'mad scientist' stuff? at least i got my attention on that kind of stuff back because of you, and i'll surely make some mad science stuff to. keep up the good work!

I'm glad you like the shrink ray, it means a lot to me that people like my work. I'm working on a worm-hole generator at the moment, and my friend and I are in the process of building a time machine. I'll post those as soon as I'm done!

cool, i'm going to to do this list in the next few days: 1. finish the battery stonehenge 2.finish the circuit board school map 3. maybe some homework 4. brainstorm on ideas for creations 5. make an engraved copper plate with cool engraving 6. make time for all of this these things should be on instructables someday greets

I like number six. Ha ha. I'm not so good with circuit boards and things like that, I don't even know what most of the things are supposed to do! I just grab a screwdriver and pliers and tear off whatever looks cool! :)

says:
it's really simple, the battery sends energy to the LED, the LED sends energy to the resistor (wich keeps the LED from blowing up/breaking/heating up) and the resistor sends the engergy back to the battery. and just tearing off the cool parts is fun indeed, but watch out, it could always be radioactive.

says:
I laugh at radioactivity! HA!! Besides, I'd get out of school and would be the only person there that's radioactive. And there's always the possibility of superpowers!

or super-diseases...if you look at a fire-alarm, you shouldn't open the part that says 'contains americium' .....

Not that I'll get a fire alarm, but what would happen?
Nov 28, 2008. 9:13 AMnecropolian
says:
well, as americium (Am 241) emits alphe and gamma radiation, your cells will have three choices: 1. get fragmentated ( they just get destroyed) 2. get damaged (weakening your 'meat') 3. mutation (not the superhero-kind, but probably cancer) in one fire alarm there is about 0.2 grams of it, and that isn't so bad.
Nov 29, 2008. 1:51 AMnecropolian
says:
that's the spirit! but as i said, don't worry about radiation when you walk past it, 0.2 grams isn't so strong.

I need to know about Tv's!!! I have a broken one but my parents think I'll die...are they right?
Dec 11, 2008. 9:48 AMnecropolian
says:
i don't think a broken TV will cause any harm, but if you want to be safe,follow the three golden rules: 1. don't connect it to (any) electric circuit! 2. don't...euuh...open it if it's already connected! 2. don't eat too much potatoes. voilà, there they are!

says:
My parents made me throw it out (It would have been so cool though!!!) apparently there are 30,000 volts in that thing even after its unplugged, and discharging the power is kinda dangerous (shock or death if the shock gets to your heart). dang it
Dec 26, 2008. 2:03 AMnecropolian
says:
wow, 30.000 volts, that's much, but if you think about the fact that "if there's still electricity in something, then it should be able to start" then you should be able to watch an unplugged TV, and that's impossible, so these 30.000 volts maybe don't exist. but you could always use an earthed screwdriver to discharge...
Dec 30, 2008. 7:04 AMhyperactiveguy (author)
says:
In theory, it would turn on for a second, but it needs MORE than 30,000 to work, the screwdriver thing is what the amazing internet told me to do.

thats right, i have much other things to do (like the elder scrolls 4: oblivion), so you interest me enough to make me place these comments, and i just want to talk a bit with people form other countries.

Awesome! I live in America. In a state called Louisiana, in a city called mandeville. Which is across the lake from New Orleans, right at the foot of the longest bridge in the world!

wow, the longest bridge in the world?! dude, the only 'monument' we have around here is...buh... something to remember the dead from world war CCLX

Yeah it's 24 miles (sorry, I don't know what that is in kilometers, but 5km is somewhere around 3 miles) long and you feel like you're driving across the ocean. And seagulls and pelicans fly past you and they're so close you could reach out the window and touch em.
Jan 16, 2009. 9:49 AMnecropolian
says:
well, i know that one mile in kilometers is: one mile is around 1,604 kilometers so 24 miles should be 38,62 kilometers. and i still don't know why they use such a complicated system in america. i mean, 12 inches in a foot, three feet in a yard... our system is much easier to understand: 10 centimeters are 1 decimeter, 10 decimeter is 1 meter... everything is about the number 10. cann you tell me why you americans make it so hard?

A long long time ago...
The english King decided that England needed some standard measurements, so being the brilliant king he was (not), he naturally used his own body to determine the measurements. Inch=section of his finger Foot= his foot(very creative) Yard= arm (I think) etc...
Enter pilgrims
They came to America from England, so they used the same measurements... centuries go by and it gets really hard to change. The system is roughly based on units of 12, but it's basically just random numbers. Metric is better, but America won't change anytime soon.

aha, that's the story! you know i saw something on the internet, it's a real video about a real dutch professor at an american university. he just starts saying how ..... he thinks the american system is, and that in front of 100 students. he's pretty cool. but star trek is that too. Qapla'!
Jan 19, 2009. 5:15 PMhyperactiveguy (author)
says:
yeah, we learned it in school, when someone asked why America didn't use the metric system. I bet the students in that video probably didn't care what the proffessor thought... I know that the system doesn't make any sense, but I don't really care...it's what I've always had.
Jan 24, 2009. 9:19 AMnecropolian
says:
ehe... well, your system will never go away... you cannot force millions of people to use the metric system suddenly...but i think everyone should know the basic SI-tabels, it would be a great improvement. and the students in the video must know the metric system, if their teacher uses it, or else they wouldn't be able to understand the notes on the blackboard.
Jan 26, 2009. 1:41 PMhyperactiveguy (author)
says:
Yeah, we learn it in science class (all scientific measurements use SI), but I have trouble with the really small prefixes, not that I'd ever measure something that small...

dude, i know almost all of them. i think there should be a new superhero: captain Zepto! i just like that name..
Feb 2, 2009. 4:16 PMhyperactiveguy (author)
says:
Ha ha, Captain Zepto to the rescue! I don't think Super Yard Man and The Inchinator would make good superheroes.
Feb 3, 2009. 12:34 PMnecropolian
says:
still, captain zepto rocks! but some villains like 'the yardinal' and 'the exanatoe', and heroes like 'monty python' and 'the superfragilisticexpialydociously yottic feeter' will make the world a better place.

LOL you should work for Marvel or DC or something as a writer!

i didn't ttought about that kind of job.... but i'm pretty sure what i want to do. it's hard to have a world without captain zepto, though....

Your last name should be "Banner," that's the generic superhero secret identity name, and so is Bruce, but Bruce Banner's taken, how about Frederick that sounds like a generic nerdy name (no offense to any Fredericks).
Feb 17, 2009. 11:30 AMnecropolian
says:
yes...long, original names usually sound nerdy. freddy is cooler than frederick, lenny is better than lennert, charlie is better than charles (altough they are both 7 letters long), ben comes from benedict or benjamin, lara from larissa, and there are a lot of names like that. my name (elio) is also a short form, i think it comes from Helios, the greek sun god.

says:
That's awesome! My name (Nicholas) is just a saint name that means Knight or something like that.
Feb 21, 2009. 3:15 AMnecropolian
says:
nice. now i think about it, nicky, nick and mick should be short for nicholas. you should try to find some anagrams of your name, like "China Sol" and "Also Inch". an anagram i can use for my name is: me oldie otis.

am i wrong, or are we making a skyscraper out of comments?
Feb 25, 2009. 9:42 AMhyperactiveguy (author)
says:
Actually, Mick is used for Michael and Nicky is almost always used for girls (Nicole). I think we're making more of a stalagtite of comments...maybe we should start another...

says:
aha, micheal and nicole.... well about captain zepto, i made a video on youtube. it's uploading now, so here is my channel:
http://www.youtube.com/user/scoutingfox
well, i think you can find "captain zepto! (vs french toast)" there.

do you have a Facebook account? i sure would like to add you to my friends directory. i tried the search with 'hyperactiveguy' but it didn't work. the one owned by me is called 'elio modesti' wich is, suprisingly, identical to my name.

No, my friends do, but it takes over their lives, so I vowed not to make one, and as U can see I wouldn't be able to keep up with it

says:
I saw that you do a lot with K'nex, which is great, but you should try making some of your things out of wood (that's what I do) your inventions will look much more proffessional, and you'll (or at least I) feel better about what I've made, even if it fails. It's easier than you think, but it helps to have a trash can full of scraps in your garage. that's what I do, but I don't have a lot of K'nex either. I'll post a pic of some of my things later (quite a few are rubberband guns).
