If you do this, and then we suffer a major catastrophe wiping out our technology and records, and you have a few of these guys running around, you're going to really confuse folks in the future.

Now they were there, then they weren't, then they were there again?

They are going to find one of those guys frozen in ice on a ski resort somewhere 10 million or so years in the future when the sun goes into a solar maximum and the whole of society is beating themselves up because they are arrogant enough to believe they are the cause of global warming. They are going to find traces of Pizza and Cappuccino in his stomach use it to speculate about the plants and animals that existed at the time of his demise.

Then some fat professor is going to espouse a popular theory that we evil human beings exterminated most of the Neanderthal 100 million years ago with genocide and left no remains to be unearthed. They will create fancy computer animated models 'proving' to the public just how bad we were. There will then be midnight vigils and a renewed effort to clone the Neanderthal once again. Affirmative action will insure they get a top notch education and preferred jobs and opportunities even though the only thing they can do is swing a club and grunt. Finally, both races eventually end up in extinction and the earth can finally rids itself of the vermin and disease that roamed its surface for millennia.

I think it deserves a Darwin Award. But who will be around to give it?

Actually, it can get quite humid in the desret. I work with folks who have spent a lot of time in Saudi Arabia and in such places and they report that it is very humid in the summer time. The reason it doesn't rain is that there is no cold dry air masses that come down to mix with the hot humid ones.

There are some places this might be a very nice appliance.
