    Definitely wouldn't go near it, especially on indiegogo.
    Even if they don't reach their goal, they still keep the money, unlike kickstarter. You hear about investors getting ripped off all the time.

    That's just my 2 cents anyway

    Great Scott!!

    But, wouldn't hold my breath.

    "Marty McFly: Doc, you don't just walk into a store and-and buy plutonium. Did you rip that off?
    Dr. Emmett Brown: Of course. From a group of Libyan nationalists. They wanted me to build them a bomb, so I took their plutonium and, in turn, gave them a shoddy bomb casing full of used pinball machine parts. Come on! Let's get you a radiation suit. We must prepare to reload."

    In fairness, Mythbusters achieved something similar a few years ago with leaf blowers.

    Maybe with a million bucks, you never know.


    ....Just not with my million anyway
