    Batman Returns!

    I gotta tell ya....you're asking alot after your last bunch of posts and the nonsense of them.

    Sometimes it's the nonsensical ideas that make the biggest waves....and can turn a fortune, or a farce, for their inventor.
    I wish you luck, but will not open my wallet as you haven't really shown us anything here except that you have big ideas but no notion as to how to fulfill them.

    Cheers

    BTW: I don't know about in the US, but in Canada, you must be a licensed charity in order to receive donations....
    ....and I'm not so sure your movie business is legit.

    Hey Batman,
    You do know that fraud and selling pirated moves is highly illegal ?

    Nice Bean, good to see some Canadian broadcast make a mark south of the border (our border! [noparse];)[/noparse].

    Let's not overlook the potentially pirated software he is also offering, MS dev suites for $5, c'mon.

    Some other thiings off the top of my head

    1. You don't seem to be 21 years old, which you must be in order to be a darpa team leader.
    2. A go kart won't do it, you need a "road safe" vehicle, like a car
    3. a go kart won't do it,·it doesnt have the range
    4. travel is required to participate, you are in detroit·how will you get out west to participate
    5. I could go on and on.......

    I never like to be a skeptic, but this is either an attempt to get some money out of this small community or you really do want to participate but you never got past the "I'm gonna build a vehicle to participate in the Darpa challenge phase"

    I suggest you browse the Darpa page and look in the forums (you are already registered and posted there), you might find a team close to you that you can join or at least hang around.

    Given that his orig post is an blatent offer for pirated software and dvds, why should he even be allowed to post? Other than for pathetic comedic value of course.

    At his hokey web-site, he's posted: "Operation Give&Receive: i need donation, every penny counts, i have been applying for jobs @ kfc, pizzahut, taco bell, white castle, popeyes and so on. But i never gets a phone."
