freakydiver 0 #5 June 13, 2003 Amazing! I remember back in my schooling days going over to Baxter and they were using this crazy machine to do something along those lines. Doctors would send in 3d scans of various things, like for instance a skull. They'd port the 3d scan into this machine and press the go button. There was this pool of liquid that a laser would make passes over and slowly out of the liquid would emerge a plastic replica of what the scan was. I was blown away! -- (N.DG) "If all else fails – at least try and look under control." -- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skydyvr 0 #7 June 13, 2003 This is a great example of why I, at 46 years old, excercise, eat right, and drink only the highest quality beer products. If I hang in there long enough, advances like this might help me live to be 100! Very cool. . . =(_8^(1) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ERICCONNELLY 0 #8 June 13, 2003 Yea, it'd be pretty cool for those folks too. Me, I got my metal from a game of chicken with an 18 wheeler. I'll tell ya that one someday over a beer. I wonder if plastic bones would just bend and not break? Give new meaning to 'he bounced' Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NeedToJump 0 #9 June 13, 2003 QuoteMe, I got my metal from a game of chicken Speaking of chickens, that guy strapped to me could have used some of that plastic. He, uh, didn't make it all the way through our jump together... he used to sing and dance when you pressed his foot...

In Texas it's only .08 Wendy W.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.
