The one I posted about at the start of this thread can be used indoors. In fact I've never used it anywhere but in my kitchen. It works GREAT!

You know, I frequent a LOT of forums where people bitch if you don't post the quote but only post the link. It just goes to show, you're damned if you do... Damned if you don't. There is no copywrite violation, I attributed fully by posting the link. I also like News of the Weird, but they are really not even similar. The Straight Dope doesn't aggregate news of any kind, weird or otherwise. Cecil answers questions.

One of my favorite websites happens to have an article that's headphone related: Link

The Left Hand of Darkness by Ursula K. Le Guin

Happy birthday!

That's exactly what I was gonna suggest!

Looks like head-fi is back in business. I've got all my parts intact, but I went from a Headphoneus Supremus to a 100+ Member! Oh well... Doesn't look like I'm alone in that boat. In the end, this has worked out great, cause now I found another great headphone site!

I listen at what I guess I would call a "moderate"level, but my volume pot is usually about 2 o'clock.

I found this place that's to postjack tipping me off... Thanks man!

Schweet score! I know a few folks who have gone through the re-foam thing. If done right (and I've heard it's fairly simple) the speakers sound great when all is said and done. I'm pretty sure PartsExpress sells the re-foam kits... Yep, they do. Just do a search for "surround kit advent" and you'll see a bunch of them.

You can find guides on converting popcorn poppers into coffee roasters over at coffeegeek.com. One thing you have to watch out for, you don't want poppers that have their air intake at the bottom, it has to be on the sides. Otherwise you could start a fire and ruin your whole afternoon...

There are 5 preset profiles, and that's it. You can adjust the time, but the profiles remain the same. So far I've only used 3 of the 5, and I do most of my roasting with P1, which is pretty much max temp until the cooling cycle begins. You can see the profiles here.

You and me both... But I don't do espresso, so I can make do with a lesser grinder for now. I wonder what the catch is with the free grinder. It's prolly not the best, but it would be a step up from a blade grinder...

I haven't tried any pound roasts, it's just me here... But I have done a whole bunch of 1/2 pound roasts and I haven't set the smoke detector off once! There is the aroma of coffee roasting, it's not completely odorless. But there's very little smoke. You can achieve a full city+ on 1/2 pound roasts, and probably even darker by telling the machine that you're roasting a full pound... On pound roasts prolly the darkest you'll get is a full city.

The only thing I can say for certain is that I really want to hear it!
