I'll try to watch it. How long do you suppose it will take the History Channel to tie this device in with Nostradamus, Bigfoot, and Area 51? I hope it doesn't happen tonight. --Vic |

That looks like the rotary intake valve on a SeaDoo 550 twin, the standup model. Somebody's jetski sunk.... It could also be the rotating shutter on a Cinemechannica 35mm movie projector, too! See the 4 quadrants, two opaque while we jerk in the next frame opposite two open to send the light on to the lens? |
