    Only in one country on this planet someone could come up with a project like this, and even have it favourably mentioned in blogs.

    Say, you don’t think there’s anything wrong with your country, do you?

    A suggestion for another project: A RGB LED lamp over your bed, connected with the internet, that will light up in the current threat level colour at the time you wake up. That way you will know whether today you need to wear your body armour and gas mask or just take the Glock when you go shopping.

      Think of it as political satire.

      I made something like what you are describing back in 2007:

        OK, I’ll try. Btw, while your project looks nice, I like your Ferrous Wheel much better. More useful too…;-)
