I am amazed at what people will put their time into.
Looks great, but I dont think I could justify the dollars put into it, to my wife.

I saw a special on this guy on some show, pretty funny. There are all kinds of crazy people doing things with turbines. I wish i had one. A friend of mine has an rc size one. It weighs three lbs and puts 13 lbs worth of thrust. It is terrifying to be by it when he starts it. It can reach 150,000 rpm and sounds just like it's bigger brethren. It is beyond me how things can spin that fast and not just grenade. That is the thing that scares me the most about flying...

Oh yea my fav paragraph
"We get this a lot. A police officer picking at his nose while trying to figure out what to charge me with. Notice the hopeful anticipation of us on the right. We're rooting for him and offer suggestions but unfortunately, the California Department of Motor Vehicles did not anticipate such a vehicle so he's out of luck. Hmmm, the car has two engines making the car a hybrid so maybe we can drive in the commuter lanes along with the Toyota Priuses."
