Seriously, the boat is wicked cool.
A) Check your PM's, I only have limited powers and my radio station doesn't usually give away Vegas tix cause it is too far away (I'll have to write them about that).
Else be assured, I would do my damnest to win them.

B) The engineering feat for this boat is amazing, aside from any wicked coolness. It is a true invention. How often do you see that non software related?! The legs go up and down and respond to the waves in order to stay efficiently and speedily on top of the waves

Sorry, everyone, I am just stunned by this. I haven't seen an invention like this much my whole life. There have been many computer inventions in my life that I have also been in awe of, and there have been some new ideas as far as engineering bridges, and the science of retrofitting buildings (very important) and all that -
but this is my first real cool new not based on other things or software or bridge related invention that I've seen. Oh, of course, aside from the hybrid car, but that was secretly really invented long ago, so holds very little element of suprise with me.
