Solar Powered Death Ray.

it's like the grown-up equivalent to torching (evil) ants with a magnifying glass. and i need one real bad.



it's called a "Fresnel Lens"... and according to this guy it'll melt pennies and wood and people. what is truly amazing is that i haven't just gone and bought one instead of typing about it.

they sell them on this Alltronics site... and there they claim you can create a 'solar oven' of sorts in order to cook food. that sounds like a cool idea for Burning Man. i'll set it up in the middle of the desert and use it to blow up cars and set hippies on fire and use it to cook up some food for my camp-mates in an environmentally sound way.
