The Windhexe

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

im telling you, it was posted before. i just can't be assed to go find it. there was a link to the article in the earlier post too.

i remember the guy had only highschool education, but with alot of imagination he invented the thing. it was meant for chicken waste disposal, as in you put in dead chicken to the windhexe and whirrr you get chicken powder. supposedly only works with soft stuff. if you put diamonds into the thing the windhexe machine will turn into powder

what it does is there's a huge blower on top and you put your stuff in, turn it on. the blower creates a tornado-like environment inside the windhexe body, which causes its contents to slam into the walls with ridiculous speed, gradually eroding them into powder.

Polifka's Windhexe has been around for a long time now, first appearances in 2the 90's, one of the first articles in a serious newspaper was published exactly two years ago (Washington Post, 9/12/2002) link
If this machine produced more energy than was put in I'd think this farmer had enough time now to make a fortune ...
In my opinion this is a 'hoax' like the famous 'tachyon converter' or other inventions who revolutionize physics.

"Polifka" as a name is widespread (though not very common) in Germany and from polish origins (I think).
The Windhexe itself means "wind-witch" and is a (apparently very old) special 'hoax' built in ... chimneys Read more

@zazie: thanx for the info! I think I'll construct a few of those windhexe in neighborhood chimneys
As for this Polifka's stuff - I'll believe it (maybe) whe I see it.
