@lucifargundam would probably work just as well as a 65 watt incandescent, afterall power is power. Besides if it worked for easy bake ovens should work with this :)
@lucifargundam I wish, but i can certainly feel the heat its so bright.
@matrix Makes sense. Might not be enough people in range to be worth the cost of a full size tower either.
Do people not realize the huge amount of natural resources it would take for just one person to go on this "vacation".. Considering global warming and all the concerns around fossil fuel consumption in general maybe not introducing a form of vacation that requires a rocket full of fuel is the way to go...
@matrix Metal roof or metal siding?
@matrix presumably TV is on a tall tower. so unless its far away or behind a mountain I'd suspect something else might be up.
@matrix yea terrain will make a huge difference too.
@matrix You must not be in a particularly dense area. In philly at least a phone is likely to have quite a few towers they can directly ping at full power.

apparently a collegue of mine and co-developer on the aparapi project is submiting a paper to a journal this month and is citing me as a co-author. Thing is, I mostly am just a atop-dev on aparapi (project "owner" and developer) and didnt do much for the paper itself. But since the paper is about aparapi and we have worked together on every problem that has come up I guess he felt I deserved it.
Either way, always excited to get my name in another journal article! Doubly so when its about an open-source project I've worked hard on.

@lucifargundam If it is a forgery but actually an old one in some rare cases that can have some value too.
@lucifargundam Right, all boils down to how neccesary the date is to identify when it was printed and what edition it is. If no first editions have dates and all later editions do then the lack of a date would add value.
Only place I could see it getting hairy is if the date was omitted across multiple editions.
@lucifargundam I wonder how the lack of a stamped date is going to effect its value...
@stux Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
@stux Truth, its almost as bad as democracy.town in that regard, all agenda, complete stupidity, no one knows the facts... pretty typical when you start looking at instances that exist on the extreme end of the political spectrums.
