The restaurants were Water Buffalo for lunch, and Swig for dinner, both in the 3rd Ward area. It was great seeing Debbie again, and meeting John. Hope you guys have a great rest of the trip!

The problem with water boarding, although this might not be true , is that with all the press about it people now know that it provides the “sensation” of drowning. without actually drowining the prisoner. Well if the prisoner *KNOWS* that, couldn’t he psychologically tough it out knowing that will it feels terrible, it won’t actually kill them.

It’s just like the people who eat bugs on reality shows. They know that the producers wouldn’t serve them anything that would actually harm them, so while it might look gross and feel gross they are willing to suck it up for the known reward at the end.

Comment on Upside Down Racing League by Russell

So, a couple of things first at what speed do the cars have this much force? Whats the minimum speed that they could travel at? If The cars have to go over 150 Miles per hour just to hold on to the roof then the cars might fall off the celling when they come around turns. Any sources on the data for how fast the car needs to be going to provide 1G of downward (towards the pavement) force?

Second, it occurs to me that one reason the cars want so much down force is that they need if for the additional additional traction. I doubt they accelerate at greater than 1G when already going 100 plus mile per hour, but they might well need it for evasive maneuvers. running upside down, cars would not be able to turn as sharply. It the car only provide 1.1 Gs of Down force, the tires would only be held on with 0.1 Gs while the car is running upside down. This would probably make for a very slippery car.

Third, so if the driver is upside down most of the time blood runs to his head. If he sits upside down to the “right side up’ car, then he has to start the car upside down., My personal favorite , a gimbled driver seat, does solve that problem, but adds more weight to the car and presents a serious visibility problem for the driver. ( his feet are on the floorboards against the road near the tires ) This could be fixed by giving the driver a VR helmet that contains images from a camera on the top of the car. This way the driver would always see the view he would if he were sitting upright in the car under normal circumstances.
