When I was 16 years old, I assembled a 2.3 million electron volt beta particle accelerator. I went to Westinghouse, I got 400 pounds of translator steel, 22 miles of copper wire and I assembled a 6-kilowatt, 2.3 million electron accelerator in the garage. When it was finished, I would plug it in, there was this huge crackling sound as I consumed 6 kilowatts of power, I blew out every circuit breaker in the house. All the lights were plunged in darkness. And my poor mom would come home every night, see the lights flicker and die, and say to herself, ‘Why couldn’t I have a son who plays baseball?’

Bionic contact lens will display data, like tweets, directly to your eyes
Researchers at University of Washington have made a discovery in testing with rabbits of a new type of contact lens that will be able to project and display data directly onto the contact lens which of course will sit on your eye like any other contact lens. Data can be fed to the lens where “floating” images and information can be seen by the eye.
