Jason Niccum told The Longmont Times-Call that he bought a device, called an Opticon, on eBay for $100 that let him change traffic lights from red to green. He told the newspaper the device "paid for itself" in the two years he had it, helping him cut his time driving to work.

Dumbass is fucking up the flow of traffic for a lot of other people. They have the lights set a certain way for a reason, especially in the busy areas.

im going to radioshack tomorrow, i guess that physics for engineers class i took last semester (where we built an AM radio from components and shit) is gonna be useful in some way.

it was a superheterodyne (sp?) 7 transistor AM radio, not just a speaker and a variable capacitor.

If it's part of his class, then it's part of his class. Doesn't matter if it's the most advanced piece of engineering in the world or not.

I guess you're not familiar how things work around here. So I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. ToxicSchmuck posts anything, he gets shut down. Why? Because he is a schmuck.
