    This is really exciting information. It just boggles my mind what our technology is allowing scientists to do, too. Everything about this is just fascinating.

    You can't help wondering -- what if they don't find the waves, too.

    This is just as bad as one of those movies with a cliff hanger ending that you have to wait 2 years to see the sequel to find out what happens.

    I wish we lived in a world where money was diverted away from ever more inventive ways to kill and into research like this to help us understand how "stuff" works.

    Why do garden gnomes smell so bad?
    So that blind people can hate them as well.

    How does the environment not interfere with those long above ground tubes?

    The heat from the sun will make those metal tubes flex.

    Albert was most disappointed when the waves failed to materialise.
