I thought you all might find this amusing.

I actualy put VHE to a practical use this week. I had to make a diagram for a physics experiment so...

If you are really bored and want to know what the project was, you can read the paper I wrote on it.

Ha!  Reminds me of rendering a cover for my chemistry project at school, using LightWave.  Oh yeah, and then there was some rubbish "history of flight" project for which I wrote almost nothing, but adorned with pages of Imagine renders.

Teachers are easily impressed sometimes.  Go with it :biggrin:

No, unfortunatly it has absolutely zero explosive potential.

That box with the grid on it had several gamma emmiting isotopes hidden in it, and we had to locate them with the detector suspended over it.
