|
I'm not into them, nor do I know anything about them, but I remember a discussion a long while back about these 'X-Mod' thingies--glorified 'Snap-Together' motorized cars and such. ANyway, Radio Shack is (again) going out of business here in Canada (...) (18 years ago, 12-Jan-07, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Note: as "a big fancy Dr. type smart guy", I can truely state that you should never, NEVER, confuse an advanced degree with intelligence. The two do not neccessarily correlate.
