But if you put objects into a medium earth orbit with an energy beam going vertically away from Earth THEN I don't believe your story anymore.

I stoped believing at bow and arrows... :lol:

Only his technology was not optimized for delivering commercial pornography, it does not mean that he did not have a lot of it.

Damn, I really wish I would have the time for a proper bow making workshop. My past attempts had been rather amusing. Building a good bow is really high technology.

There are possible arrowheads found in Africa which are about 64,000 years old. Now try building a bow with stone tools, no copper, no iron.

did something similar as kid, with flint. Tried making stoneage tools and fishing hooks with stone age tools... after a few days attempting the techniques shown in school, the results became pretty impressive already... but it had been hard work.

Excuse me, I forgot:

Didn't try that, but knifes capable of cutting through leather were achieved.

Let me make some arrowheads and a bow, and we can try on a hidden secret place... because such arrowheads of stone would be against German weapon laws. :rofl:

I spent a few days learning how to make a [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_longbow"]Longbow[/ame] some years ago. It did not end well, if anyone has ever seen a 70-80lb longbow fail you will know what i mean (we where pulling splinters out of the [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archery_butts"]butts[/ame] for hours). And making one with bronze tools would be possible but damm hard, using stone tools would be even harder but also possible.

Thanks for making me cough out all the sawdust from this morning. :rofl:

All I'm saying is that it is an extreme stretch to run around in an invisible nanosuit in a space age society and the most convienient weapon is a bow and arrow. 'cause that's what the original comment was about. At least I think Matt was talking about Crysis 3?

I think my KSP space agency is taking cues from early NASA. Launch upwards, explode, smash into the ground. Rinse, pay out retirement claims, repeat.

This was a solderless breadboard.

Guess what caused all the damage.

Did you get a good look at Arwen? The elves don't freaking need pornography:thumbup:

Or they have a different type of it... maybe they carved naughty things into trees and hugged them.

Boeing, Wideroe Finalize order for 4 787 Dreamliners.

Wow, this will be epic, they have a great livery. Certainly a very good choice for all the STOLports they operate at.

Wikipedia's a bit early on the April Fool's Day shenanigans. (for the Western Hemisphere, I guess)
