"One way to examine the history of drafting pencils, and maybe pencils as a whole, is to understand today's thin lead mechanical pencils as the finest expression of pencil technology and that the history of drafting pencils has been a constant march toward thinner and thinner leads, ending in mechanisms and leads the precise thickness of the lines to be drawn with them.

"Deep 'V' hulls are the traditional solution for traveling at high speeds in offshore waters. By their nature they are planing craft and spend their time on the surface of the water. They are therefore, on occasion, subject to extreme vertical accelerations created by waves. Wave piercers are not completely novel as designers have been developing slim sharp fronted boats for years that are encouraged to cut through the waves rather than bouncing over them. The VSV™ (Very Slender Vessel) applies these principles to high-speed patrol vessels. This has enabled crews to travel at high speeds in adverse sea conditions in relative comfort and safety."

"Building a fully submersible submarine is complicated and indiscreet, requiring highly skilled workers and a manufacturing facility that’s too big to be easily hidden. The alternative: semisubmersibles that, though considerably smaller than the sub found in the warehouse, can carry five times as much cocaine as a common fishing vessel."

"While the realities of fluid dynamics dictate that a teardrop shape is the ideal aerodynamic form, Kamm found that by cutting off / flattening the streamlined end of the tear at an intermediate point, and bringing that edge down towards the ground, he could gain most of the benefit of the teardrop shape without incurring such a large material, structural, and size problem. The airflow, once given the suggestion of the beginning of a turbulence-eliminating streamlined teardrop tail, tended to flow in an approximation of that manner regardless of the fact that the entire tail wasn't there. This is called the Kamm effect."

"Mammoth teeth grew similar to the process of a conveyor belt. Once a set of teeth was being completely worn down, a new set would be ready to grow in its place. This process would take place six times in a mammoth’s lifetime. In the final set, when the teeth wore down, the mammoth would slowly starve to death."

"The most distinctive feature of the Oil Rocks is that it is actually a functional city with a population of about 5,000 and over 200 km (120 mi) of streets built on piles of dirt and landfill. Most of the inhabitants work on shifts; a week on Oil Rocks followed by a week on the shore. The small city includes shops, school and a library."

"A drill bit in the shape of a Reuleaux triangle can, if mounted in a special chuck which allows for the bit not having a fixed centre of rotation, drill a hole that is very nearly a perfect square. Other Reuleaux polygons are used for drill bits for pentagonal, hexagonal, and octagonal holes."
