Friday, March 12, 2004 and i always thought i was the only one w/ this question... from The Tech, 3/11/04: Positive Sinking Big Racks By Akshay Patil features Editor You should investigate that huge bubble thingy in building 8. Who made it? Why? How? Why’s it always look non-functioning? What is its function? Et cetera. Just a suggestion. -- not ass You mean that big thingy in building 6? Outside of 6-120? I have no idea what that is. As far as I can tell it just makes bubbles. I don’t think it’s really supposed to do anything besides that, so I’m guessing it’s usually in working order. Trust MIT to build a huge contraption to mimic a four year old with soapy water. There’s probably some sort of amazing complexity arising from the underlying simplicity of the boundary interactions of molecules on a sub-nuclear level which offers insight into the grand problem of “where does my sock go when I do my laundry?” which has resulted in three Nobel prizes and a partial proof to the Goldbach Conjecture. So as you can tell, I have utterly failed to investigate, research, or do anything of that elk. I mean ilk. I did Google search it, if that counts for anything... so if there’s a proper Web site about the bubble thingy in building six it must be under the search engine radar. Or it could have some sort of anti-radar coating like those stealth-bombers. That’d be kind of cool. Wouldn’t do much good for your page rank though... I’m sure there’s a little placard or something like that next to it which explains everything in due process, but I’ll be damned if I bother to actually read it or something. Seriously, what do they expect from us? We have more important things to do... like, uhm, writing stuff... about big racks of computers. Yeah. --posted by M @ 8:48 PM | 0 comments 0 Comments: |
