Title: The Museum of Unworkable Devices.
Post by BNC on Jun 22^nd, 2003, 3:41am

This museum (http://www.lhup.edu/~dsimanek/museum/unwork.htm#neverwork) is a celebration of fascinating devices that don't work. It houses diverse examples of the perverse genius of inventors who refused to let their thinking be intimidated by the laws of nature, remaining optimistic in the face of repeated failures.
