I thought this thing was pretty wild!  Check it out!

I saw this guy with John Nagy at a trade show in Jersey, he had a prototype there at the time.  How many of you would actually consider buying this thing though?

    You give me 50 bucks and 30 min at the local hardware and I'd have one built.

    dont hear drums and cant smell

    in the box, for if it is evil you seek,
    then it can only be conjured with the
    same.

    That's kind of what I was thinking Paco. Get a cheap aqaurium and a small recirculating pump - epoxy the pump to the side of the glass and you have it. I might just try that - at least play with it for a bit.
