Go to Post I don't know how much of a safety factor chain manufacturers build into these ratings. I've got empirical evidence to demonstrate that it's not 5, however. - Tristan Lall [more]

Re: Your most random quote ever

It's not personally mine but my friend once tried to explain how to make diamond plate:

Brian: "You know how they make diamond plate right?"
Someone in his audience: "No, how?"
Brian: "You see, they take peanut butter, or anything else organic, then put it in a high pressure nitrogen environment. Or methane, I don't know, something inert..."
audience: [blank stares]
someone: "What the heck are you talking about!?"
Brian: "I'm serious, that's how they make it."
someone: "No they don't"
Brian: "Yes they do!"
someone: "I don't think you know what diamond plate is."
...

The conversation continued in a similar manner until we were able to figure out that he was talking about synthetic diamonds rather than diamond plate.

Ahh...late nights during build period... The funniest things don't happen until after the feeble freshmen call it a night.
