Speaking of boats...the Arno XI

The Italians always win for their beautiful designs.
But when it comes to packing power, the Americans always win. And like posted above, we've been doing it forever. most famously when Gar Wood stuffed 4 Packard V12s in his Harmsworth winning boat. Rules were changed because there just wasn't any competition anymore. https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...92bec47440.jpg And yeah. Ninja got it, in PM. |

What do I win? That's me with the coffee cup, showing the IT guys I brought with me to handle the fiber cutover the hardware which they never see. This is the ultimate business-end of all of the systems which they manage. BTW, can you feel the building move at all on windy days? I remember going to the top of the Stratosphere in Las Vegas on a windy day and not only hearing/feeling the elevator "scrape" on the way up as the building moved, but was able to watch the water in the toilet move. Was a bit unnerving... |

Look up the boat, not the engine and you'll find out what they are pretty quickly.

Empire was another matter. That one you could feel. Which is odd, given how massively over-engineered that building was by modern standards. Interestingly, the condo I lived in when I first moved to Chicago (53rd floor of a 56 story building) didn't sway in the least, despite the fact that it was shaped like a sail and right next to the lake. |

I'll go you one better than that. Imagine being on an 1100' tanker working in a medium sea, and seeing the bow move out of sync from your point of view.

https://www.facebook.com/toofcknfst/videos/5107963385915566/ It was funny when it first started a year or four ago. Now it's getting stale. Like, remember that one kid who kept wearing BK sneakers and saying "Rad!" well into the early 1990s? https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...c5ed0012fd.png |

https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...5e1f0137e7.png That's the air conditioning controller inside room 9850 at Sears Tower. It'd been modified a few times over the years, but each mod was properly documented. It took me a long time to get that system really stable, but after that it was perfect. I'm a little bit sad to see it go. |
