The post this week is going to be just on one topic: making lists. A few months ago I was looking at various Adam Savage videos and was astounded by the complexity of the projects he undertakes. If you’re not familiar with Adam Savage, he is one of the co-stars of Myth Busters where they’d test some outrageous claims by building crazy devices. For example, episode 8: “Attempting to recreate spectacular feats like … brothers escaping from Alcatraz prison using an inflatable raft made from rubber raincoats.” Or, testing the myth “could a frozen chicken penetrate the window of a flying aircraft? Maybe. Could it penetrate the window fired out of an air compression cannon? Absolutely, positively, it could.”
