:P I love Rube Goldberg machines. They're a demonstration of human ingenuity coupled with our profound ability to do something useless with style and genius.

Awesome...Rube Goldberg machines are an example of mechanics and common sense at work! :thumbs:

They are simple to put together (need a mechanical mind, but not that complicated), but take ALOT of thought and planning! (The thought and planning is the TOUGH part :yes:)

During my undergrad years, I did a research project on the role psychology plays in everyday mechanics...and i was quite fascinated by these machines. Personally, I don't have the stamina to make one of these...too much on my mind to concentrate!

And as far as creme eggs...no thanks! :no: I prefer watching them go through the machine rather than eat them! :yes:

I like Creme Eggs, though I can only eat one. If I have two I feel sick. Tom absolutely loves them, when we went to Cadbury World we went into the employee store at the end and bought numerous bags of 10 for 50p each.
