Theo Jansen is the Dutch creator of what he calls "Kinetic Sculptures," where nature and technology meet. Essentially these sculptures are robots powered by the wind only.

Friends, let us speak candidly:

Could is possibly be worth $12 and a 45-minute drive to watch Batman Begins on IMAX?

My vote is yes. The series starts over again, they get the killing of Batman's parents correct (insofar as the comics are concerned) and, let's be frank, the previews look kick ass. We've been let down in the past by guns-blazing previews (Blade II, Star Wars Episodes I and II, Transporter,...well, the list goes on and on), but are we so jaded as to allow our entrenched cynicism to preclude us a truly awesome, once-in-a-lifetime experience? Does it matter since I'm only working part time this summer and would have nothing to stop me from trekking up there on Wednesday the 15th?

These are the questions that DEMAND answers.

I remembered this little dialogue after finding out that some people at my main hangout believe every word of the Bible. How could engineers, much less scientists fail to take even a brief academic look at something that was conceived out of human ingenuity?

Even the Memestreams-allowed HTML tags can't express my utter disappointment in "tomorrow's leaders." Or, at least, tomorrow's room moms.

Found this the other day and thought the Memestreams audience should share the laugh. FYI: The stoning commences tomorrow.
