How stuff works

Hi all,

Every wonder how stuff works? Like cell phones, pentium processors, the Amish people, northern lights, the yellow "first & 10" line on TV football games?

If you do, check out howstuffworks.com. Some of you probably know about this site already, but if you've never been there, it's awesome.

I've been going to it for about 2 years or so and have learned TONS! Check it out, but be careful. You could easily spend a whole day just reading the stuff.

Did you read about the 1st & 10 line yet? That's one AMAZING piece of technology. Unbelievabley complex for such a simple concept.
