Magnets
#11
RE: Magnets
I work for a company that makes MRI magnets. They're 1-3 T in strength. For reference, the Earth's own field is only 25 to 65 µT (depending on the location).

Needless to say they're fun to play with. They wipe a hard drive pretty much instantly. They can pull a wrench out of your pocket from over two feet away. Attempting to cut through the lines of force with a slab of steel feels like you're trying to lift a plank with a 400-pound man standing on it.

Ooo.... I want some of those. I suppose they're probably not sold to the general public. Nor could I probably afford them.

Wrenches and screw drivers wouldn't be much better than the knife CD.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
