The glass allows for visual verification of fluxing. |

Coils under glass? That's just plain weird. |

I always loved Back to the Future; really a good fun film. One quick story: When I was in High School I had a physics exam. One of the questions was incorrectly written and would have required time travel to take place. As my answer I wrote that answering the question would require a plutonium powered Delorean that was going over 88mph.....I got full marks for that one. |

You're right, Tazio. If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 MPH you're gonna see some serious ! |

While it looks very much like a Flux Capacitor, it is actually an early 1950's birth control device. |

I forgot to mention that it requires 1.21 Giggawattts of power and 88mph to operate properly. |

That would be the Flux Capacitor and is what makes time travel possible. More of a Delorean than Ferrari part. |
