So I just watched this program on the History Channel about Heron of Alexandria. Wow!!! This guy was genius! In case you’ve never heard of him, as was my condition earlier this evening, here’s the lowdown. First century A.D. this guy was in Alexandria, birthing such marvels as miraculous, automatic temple doors, steam engines, automatic weaponry, and 20 minute progressions of theatre presentations! To spare the details, I saw a lot of things that he did artistically, or which could be interpreted as such. If you get a chance, look into some of his work. Here’s probably the best link I found after much google searching.

Ok, we’re up and running.
I’m a bit limited on ideas, so I may be very comfortable with finding someone with a good one and doing what it takes to make it happen.
