4. For a clock, it sure doesn't spend a lot of time telling the time

I think I'd be really pissed if I had a clock like that, that spent most of it's time doing other stuff besides telling time.

(aside from that, it is seriously cool)

6. Why does it have words in English?

Isn't it in Japan?

11. You will see words in English all over Japan

When I lived there, a bakery around the corner from me had BAKERY written on the front. But did the owners or anyone in the shop speak English? No.

Everyone under the age of about 70 in Japan has studied three to six years of English in school, which does NOT mean that they speak it. However, they like to toss English words around and put them on signs and insert them in songs, whether they make any sense or not.(cf. engrish.com)

7. It's a freakin' dot-matrix printer with clear ink!!!

[hobbit709]

8. wouldn't that be ink jet?

[HopeHoops]

10. Ink jets ARE dot-matrix printers. They just aren't "impact" printers.

But yes, that probably would have been a better term. That's still a cool thing to do with water. Somebody had WAY too much fun putting that together, but I bet it works like a printer driver - "Here - print this".

9. Very, very cool!

[nolabear]

13. I'd love to know (and understand) the formula for surface tension/gravity.

They never told us in science class that you could make cool artistic stuff.

14. Positively hypnotic.. I LOVE the reaction

of the little kids..

[AggieGal]

15. I wish we had that clock here.

Why does Japan have all the cool stuff?

It would be awesome if someone could time it to music.

[ZombieHorde]

16. So awesome. nt

[UnrepentantLiberal]
