    That's such a non-argument.

    Have you tried <insert pointless thing to try here> yet? Putting your hand in the fire, a manure sandwich, twiddling a pencil, standing on your head...

    David, perhaps it's just your posts that are misunderstood on these fora - although however much you post on here, 75% might be a bit optimistic :D

    The edge of reality
    Polycarbonate is used for jet fighter canopies simply because it retains a very high impact resistance over a very wide temperature difference. The other side of the aluminium layer however is Acrylic, this has no way near the same impact resistance as polycarbonate especially not at low temperatures when it becomes very brittle.
    both materials however will in sheet form sag under there own weight, polycarbonate being worse in this respect than acrylic.

    I would imagine the -10 degrees of your freezer pales into insignificance with the furnace that is the dash mounted cd player in my car.

    Fucking idyats.

    I think he has a fair point.

    Is someone telling you to freeze a CD and it will sound better any different to saying a manure sarny will help your kids grow strong and healthy?
    On face value no it is no different.

    This is completely pathetic agnosticism. No one knows there's no dragons, unicorns, flying spaghetti monsters, gods, ley lines, and all the other nonsense you can imagine. But in the complete absence of any evidence whatsoever for these things, the rational stance is that they don't exist, until evidence shows us otherwise. This is the 21st century, not the 14th. No one can ever prove a negative.

    Ta to penance, rob, tones et al for rational scepticism.

    Mr. Devil is doing this forum a great favour with his posts. Not only by upholding rational thought, but primarily because this crazy thread is the most popular this forum has had in the last few months, at least! ;)

    I can point out some posts which aren't so rational (and certainly not such a great favour) simon but not to worry!
