You're off-topic John. krys was talking about shoeboxes, not shoes.

discuss anything from French fries to slivey toves.

...but first, make sure you have your flashlight, lamp, and matches, else you may find yourself face to face with a grue that has slavering fangs...

Heyyyyyy....I keep him chained up dammit....I promise he won't bite you.

I wonder if anyone really caught the reference I was attempting...

I have a friend who is 72 stones, and as fit as a fiddle.

His Body Mass Index is 28.1, or just slightly over the figure considered as a trending to being fat or obese.

How tall is my friend?

It's good to be back amongst friends and colleagues

Have you never been mellow?...Have you never tried?

We seem to be getting a little on topic here...

Can we please try to get back off topic again...

Thank you... ;)

It may not be 1984 but George Orwell sure did see the future . . .

In regards to the birthday bashed thread, it reminds me of the following off topic idea..


Kinda goes something like this:

#include <brains.h>
int main()
{
double smarts;
smarts= 2.0 * atan(3.0);
printf("F is = %f \\n",smarts);
}


[Seti@home]$ gcc -lm smarts.c
/tmp/asdnioM.o(.text+0x1b): In function `main':
: undefined reference to `smarts'

Quotes from the article relating to Dr. Zahl . . .

"In a certain closely guarded area an Army vehicle known as the weasel might be maneuvering without a driver, obeying impulses

transmitted by remote radio rays, scooping up samples of earth and automatically sending back a television picture of what it was gathering."


" The scope of SCEL’s projects literally covers dozens of scientific fields. American military radar was born at Monmouth, with Dr. Harold

A. Zahl, now SCEL’s research director, personally devising certain types of necessary vacuum tubes which were unavailable from industry at

that time because of lack of commercial interest. Later, Monmouth scientists, for the first time in history, bounced radar waves off the moon.

Now they are using the magic electronic finger of radar for practically every conceivable purpose, from tracking hurricanes to taking wind

velocity and temperature readings from the nose of a rocket soaring in the stratosphere."


In years of service, research director Zahl, through only forty-seven, is the veteran of SCEL’s top civilian scientists.

“I came here twenty-one years ago, just after earning my doctorate from the University of Iowa, because someone told me Monmouth would be a

good place to spend a winter,” Zahl said. “I’ve been here ever since.” One of his first assignments was in connection with a joint Signal

Corps-Coast Artillery experiment on antisubmarine defenses. It involved placing four buoys, anchored by the toughest existing steel cable,

existing steel cable, off the Jersey coast. “Naturally, we couldn’t tell the newspapers what we were doing, so one of the tabloids conceived

the idea, which it luridly chronicled, that we were launching scientific warfare against the rumrunners of that era,” Zahl related. “It was

supposed to be a device that would enable us to listen to conversations on rum boats fifty miles out. The morning after that story appeared,

we found our buoys missing. Such was science in the early ‘30’s.”


During World War II it was necessary to sacrifice a great deal of long-range scientific research to the immediate job of producing needed

hardware. Today, the top military and civilian authorities say, that is not the case. Even the demands of the Korean conflict have not

crippled the program of research for the future. “we try to keep at least five years ahead of the user, and in certain fields, our thinking

is at least twenty-five years ahead .” Doctor Zahl declared. “At the same time, however, since funds are limited and demand for immediate

items is great, the laboratories must maintain a delicate balance between the practical and the visionary. We can’t throw away our dollars

on the ridiculous. I can predict a twenty-five-year goal, but I can’t tell you when will have a man-made satellite circling in the slipstream

of gravity.”

Dr. Zahl was the Director of Reasearch from 1948 to 1966 at Fort Monmouth's Camp Evans
