Finally, we've got that sorted out.

  1. That was *awesome*! You need to post more of those kinds of videos!

  2. What? How Things Work? I thought that's what posting series like Civilisation (going through it an episode or two at a time) is all about.

  3. Funnily enough, the differential gear is originally a Chinese invention. It was first used on a mechanical compass, the "south-pointing chariot".

Rules for submitting comments:

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.

Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
