    Tube Travesty

    I suppose they might work just fine on the Space Lab’s front porch, but then again, I don’t think room acoustics are all that good in a complete vacuum.

              Dougie, could you elaborate on that? You mean they would sound really good for that microsecond before they blow up right?

              Without a vacuum that's what would likely happen, though I'd have to try it to be sure.

                        I wonder what kind of 'fun' chemicals that guy was exposed to cleaning the 'silver' from inside the tube glass.

                        Brilliant idea. LOL

                          I think we should all log on to Craig's List and select this as a "best of" ad.
