Roll on the 20th June

Happy Birthday Archer

Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn

Everybody's building ships and boats
Some are building monuments, others are jotting down notes
Everybody's in despair, every girl and boy
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
Everybody's gonna jump for joy

Yep, all quiet...

(crickets chirping, followed by uncomforting silence)

It the 20th in the land of the kangaroos. So why is my gas still $4.80?

Let me check Archie's tube vids...

Oh, that explains it.

Nothing more to say on the Newtonian side. Anything further on Archie and we'd be beating a dead horse.

So, anyone want to talk about other possibilities?

PS I love how his site now says the power isn't in the extensions, and therefor are not needed. Didnt I make a few long posts about this? Yes, I did. Wasn't this also the same issue he focused the entire "Newtonian View" page on, calling me an idiot and liar for saying they are useless? Yes, it was. Funny now that he understands that page is not there. I accept your appology, no hard feelings. Happy Bday, sorry things didnt turn out the way we all hoped...

PurePower,

I think if you read what Archer say on the countdown page, you will see that he is using extensions.  you missread it.
because of the new design to break the wall, the extensions aren't needed to break it anymore, however they are still needed to generate the "power", "torque", "momentum"  of the wheel.  so I don't think there will be any apologies coming.
please put your pride aside, take your time and read all the info there, there is alot of really good info on the build page and in the vids.
Grab a cold beer, and some pizza.  it will be an interesting evening.
EDIT:  ah crap, sorry Purepower, I forgot, you're not old enough to have a cold beer.  no problem, I'll have a couple for you too
ciao  Dirt

I'm happy to cut Archer some slack and give him an 'extension' (pun intended) for another week, or month, or two.  He has really reformed himself of late and is actually trying to build an OU device instead of giant levers.  He stopped cursing people out and, who knows, maybe he will put up or shut-up when push comes to shove.

Keep building Archer, take some more time if you need it.  It's been a long time since you destroyed your last working machine, nobody expects you to get it right the first time.
