    My Dremel Job

    Hello, Well, I have always wanted my TJ10 to be a little neater inside, but it isn't the easiest case to work with because it is very large, and doesn't have wire management holes in the MB tray. Here is my case before it was touched today. As you can see, it wasn't exactly pretty...

    Don't Talk to Aliens

    Any assumptions about how other forms of "Life" would interact with us are just silly speculation. It's akin to some one who lived over 4,000 years ago trying to determine the winner of the 2010 baseball World Series, that they couldn't have possibly even knew existed.
