Regardless of what one's attitude may be toward seemingly off-the-wall tweaks, I nominate Onhwy61's post as a candidate for "Best Post of the Week."
BTW, for those who may not be aware, Hedy Lamarr really did make significant contributions to the design of torpedo guidance systems in WWII. See the paragraph entitled "Frequency-hopping spread-spectrum invention" in this Wikipedia writeup. Note also that "Lamarr's and Antheil's frequency-hopping idea serves as a basis for modern spread-spectrum communication technology, such as COFDM used in Wi-Fi network connections and CDMA used in some cordless and wireless telephones."
