    Check it out :slight_smile: Something I saw in the news yesterday and all I could think was how awesome for EC this could be. Now New York Ec'ers can see London EC'ers. Well not only awesome for EC but awesome for the general public as well..the thing is just awesome.

    Fibre Optics FTW!

    Wheeww!

    Lets see if we can get a picture of a New Yorker EC'er looking at a London EC'er. If you can find room :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Fiber optic is kind of like a wire, so the creators are "contending" that there is this tunnel that connects London and New York.... (*roll eyes* clearly they do not wish to share their breakthrough in technology)

    LOL, is this thing real? I mean, a telescope connecting 2 cities? ><

    I know fiber optics can send light signals across vast distances, but really.. someone go check it out and tell us if they claim what its supposed to be! :grin:
