This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the
opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards
deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least
20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per
page).
Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50
topics per page, while others deemed of historical
signifigance may be archived in their entirety.
We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but
we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in
lieu of that.
Please enjoy the archive. ~
Managers, Moderators, VIP's, and regular posters.

The machine blasts hydrogen ions, or protons, at silicon wafers. The protons embed themselves as a layer of bubbles. Then, the machine heats up the wafer to expand the bubbles to break off a sheet from the wafer.

Wow! A couple more breakthroughs like that and solar might start to be cost effective.
