- Comment on 'Reverse Solar Panel' Generates Electricity at Night 6 days ago:
The system takes advantage of the heat difference between Earth’s surface and the night sky, with the ground radiating much of the heat it captured during the previous day.
It’s not a reverse solar panel. It’s not a solar anything. It requires a difference in heat… So it generates electricity in the same situation that a sterling engine uses to generate motion. Could you put one on a diesel generator to turn the waste heat into more electricity?
Does it have anything in common with those weird little solid state heat exchangers?

Any flies that fly into my house are given a chance to leave. If I can herd them out the window, they get to live and make lots of new baby flies.
On the other hand, their chances of getting a close up view of the fly swatter increase exponentially with every minute they spend refusing to leave and ignoring the fact that I’m literally showing them the exit.
- Comment on Can pets tell who's petting them without looking? 5 weeks ago:
My cat could. But only because I would rub my fingers together to make a faint noise, so they could tell where my hand was without looking.
It significantly reduced the number of surprises, and they felt a lot more comfortable around me.

Vantage Master 2 fits that requirement. It has been released as freeware for Windows XP.
I tried to play Warlord 2 like that, but there are times when I want to shift-click, or alt-click, and my onscreen keyboard doesn’t always allow that.

Can I rephrase the question to, what is the longest electromagnetic wavelength ever recorded?
