So for all you dreamers on cloud 9, I'm just wondering who is going to rake up that mess |
|
| |
you probably, it will all come down in the neighbours yard. |
|
| |
" the neighbors yard" [po] if only it were that simple, once they fall in their yard a big wind picks them ALL up and blows them into mine. every day, for 4 months, every year... im so tired of raking. |
|
| |
yeah, I meant FJ's neighbour's yard... |
|
| |
What would happen if you planted a tree upside-down with a full-spectrum light source underneath it? Might be quite cool to film it and then play it back the other way up. |
|
| |
Why rake them, [dentworth]? Didn't Ma Nature intend them to fall on the ground, for fertiliser? |
|
| |
UB, there are just too many |
|
| |
actually FJ, this tree could also have fiber-optics that would light the balloons before they are released, and
obviously I don't know much about gases, would the colored heliums glow? |
|
| |
You could leave the baloons on and have them fill and empty like a pulsing heart. You could light them from within, obviating the physics necessary to color helium. At the end they could fly airborne as described. Maybe filled with smoke? I envision this as a stage prop. |
|
| |
Somehow, I don't think this would be good for air traffic. On the other hand, cities could turn this problem to their advantage by releasing all of the leaves at once to stop out of control planes, suicide bombers, etc. |

500 billion apples ought to bring down a 767, I guess. |
