  3. don't I know it. in 10 years I doubt we will be able to continue to run 9 nmr magnets, 3 mri, and 5 ft's, plus all those low temperature epr experiments. luckily I will be retiring in 2.5 years or less there are 400mhz superconducting liquid nitrogen magnets, but those are toys.

  4. Animals As Leaders- The Madness of Many Cool stuff here... metal jam-band, like a real heavy Umphrey's. "The Brain Dance" is particularly fantastic.

  11. RIP Dr Heimlich. We talked about him during lunch this afternoon. He was a thoracic surgeon, he had designed his famous manoeuvre theoretically and hadn't ever put it in practice until he was rather old and living at a residence. He saved the life of an old lady with his own hands even retired

  12. I think he hangs out on the pinkfishmedia.net forum, but not sure how much he contributes. His stuff seems to be well-thought of there, and from what I gather is dissed on the Naim forum, which is probably a good thing

  13. Dr. Henry Heimlich maneuvered to age 96. 2016 decided that was enough. RIP to a real lifesaver.

  15. I forget now which liquefier we bought when we moved from Eynsham to Tubney. But it was big. Because this was cryogenic systems manufacture on a large scale we had to deal with a serious amount of helium. Every magnet could take typically 5 (and sometimes many more) training quenches. And because these were in less than efficient test cryostats, each quench took at least 100 litres of helium (for cool down and reservoir). So 500 liters plus per magnet, at a production of one a day or thereabouts. Not counting all the other systems (variable temperature inserts, He3 and dilution fridges). So a daily use of 600-700 litres was typical, which had to be compressed and stored (two monster pressure tanks outside), and then liquefied 24/7.

  17. Xavier and I went out for a ~13 mile ride in the rain today with a buddy of mine who is testing out his new bike and wheels. Not sure if buddy's flash went off for this one or what, but man, this bike is gorgeous. **BRENT**
