Yikes, finger crossed for him.

Each vertical stack of logic modules in the Cray-2 supercomputer sat atop a power supply which delivered 5 volts at 2,200 amps.
The total power consumption of a fully-configured system was between 150–200 kW.
When running at full power, it was found that, to a limited extent, the perfluorinated polyether used to cool the machine would break down to form the extremely toxic gas perfluoroisobutylene.

I wonder what the engineering reasoning was behind the 400 Hz power supply.

And now you're back in chicago? Back at the same TV station as before? Starting in the mail room again, or did you get the VP corner office they offered you to stay a two months ago?

I wonder how long it will last though, that's the thing to bet on.
I don't recall whether I ever posted an image of the finished product:

My wife just came in to inform me that she backed the Expy into the Miata. I was calm. I will go and see it now.
EDIT: Seems to be mostly a deformed bumper cover, and a very slight dimple in the hood. Nothing is cracked on either headlight.

Trying to get my nb2 thru emissions. We are a plug in state and if all is well and no cels and the obd2 diagnostic tests are complete, you pass. I have 3 tests that haven't completed yet. Oxygen sensor monitor, catalyst monitor and egr system. It has been months and many miles of varying conditions and no go. Any advice?
