Metal Rubber NanoSonics - RF CafeWhile not quite as high on the innovation scale as Scotty's transparent aluminum, this "metal rubber" is pretty close. It can be heated, frozen, washed or doused with jet fuel, and still retain its electricity-conducting properties.

Babbage Difference Engine #2 - RF CafeThis is the world's first full-sized Babbage Difference Engine #2; Babbage completed the plans in 1849, but never built the machine.

A manually cranked handle powers the gears, cogs, cams, and wheels.

"A Walk on the Wild Side"El Camino Del Ray - RF CafeNeed a vacation to calm the nerves? Well, traveling the El Caminito del Rey ("The King's Walkway") probably is not for you. The now dilapidated walkway was built in 1901-1905 along the steep walls of a narrow gorge in El Chorro, Spain. Maybe it is just what you need, though, make obstacles at work seem insignificant. I'll bet Bob Pease has walked this trail, and he is in his 60s.
