I have used this 3M tape for years to mount heavy things - it is amazing. I understand it was originally developed to construct buses without rivets or welding. I have also mounted single panels like this with a bunch of rare earth magnets now that you can buy them with a screw hole in the center.

The same was said of coal and wood when they were the main sources of energy. The real drug for Sheeple is air and water pollution from dirty energy sources. Last I heard, we were not dying and killing 1000's in other countries to secure wind blades...

I can't think of an industry that has a greater subsidy from tax dollars than Big Oil. I believe the economy is wrecked and people dying in foreign lands to protect oil interests. Entire systems of efficient transport have been shelved in favour of maintaining reliance on oil.

But common sense is not always so common...

I never bought into the idea of watching TV or movies on a little computer screen until I got a SlingBox - now my regular TV is a dust collector. If they build it, people will come.
