There’s an engineering student somewhere who’s created a do-it-yourself air conditioner using a trash can, a fan, some tubing and ice water.  You can see it here.

This is another in a growing list of reasons why I’ve always respected engineering students.  Actually the list is for all non-English majors.  We EMs are basically a worthless lot unless you’re in desperate need for a font of worthless knowledge…then we’re it!
