I am actually using a discountinued RCA DW at the moment. It will only seat five, but I intend to use some Dr. Who technology to provde Tardis-like internal volume.

Rusty pots, hmm, soounds like a good name for a "mature" adult video actress.

I would prefer if you did not make light of my DIY space cruiser. Spacial Resonance is interesting, but will not run off my proposed fuel of self-produced methane and old bean cans. A cascaded cold plasma power bridge would be useful. I may have to ink that into the design to provide power for the "heated dry" cycle. That was giving me fits, as the jet dry module could not support the power requirements, which I estimate to be in the gigajigamegajoule-neuton range.

the funny thing is that all of Star Trek shows they were all based on science fact...I was watching "Enterprise" reruns on the SCI-Fi channel and there was a weird episode that was in the last season where the Captain weas dealing with the Zindi and there was an explosion and the next thing you knew he was on Earth among an alien race that was dupilcating the Nazi's...and my wife claimed BS, than I told her it was possible due to the space/time continuem...later on that was addressed during the show. Later on I tried to explain to her it was part of Einsteins theory of realitivity...and yiou know how far that got...lol

So what your saying is the dishwasher spaceship actually is possible if Captian Kirk was the pilot.


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...

I have a feeling that Kirk would not be enough, although he could "negotiate" us a decent hotel room just about anywhere. Now, if we had Scotty, and Data we would be good to go. It would be a tight squeeze to get them and us in the DW though...

The transporters could be re-engineered by Scotty and Data to enlarger the dishwasher to accommodate all of your needs while still only retaining it's original spacial dimensions. It's kind of like magic.

I told my g/f about this thread last night, and she asked "Why is everyone trying to be mean to the original poster?" Poor brijar. That's what he gets for asking a serious question.

What about a Cuisinart HyperJet? Ludicrous speed is easily attainable with that.

I'm not sure... how fast is Ludicrous speed?


I think they are ranked like this....

Slowest... Light Speed
Faster... Warp Speed
Fastest... Ludicrous speed


Can someone let me know if I have that wrong.

Looking at the Data sheet from a Cuisinart Hyperjet Module, Ludicrous Speed is the fastest on the current black market. With a Mod2 upgrade, the bottom basket can be omitted and Worf will fit in there as well. But a Jedi might be more usefull.

Actually... I think ridiculous speed falls in between light speed and warp speed. So the list would look like this. Again, I'm not sure about any of this. Working from memory here.

Slowest... Light Speed
Fast... Ridiculous speed
Faster... Warp Speed
Fastest... Ludicrous speed

Me too. I though there were only three levels. But, it's been a while since I saw the movie. Good excuse to watch it tonight!
