testing makes assumptions about what to test for and how you would want to evaluate it. You make assumptions that things are not going to vary that in fact do. either way the legal headache would just be too much.

I shouldn't of included that phrase but they took me out for a meal and much free booze so i was a little lubricated. The main point was new is a relative term and it is hard to find anything truely novel.

Unlike you bill my 60 wpm typing speed and near dyslexia means i could go on for hours sadly it seems more of a handicap than a help.

I can name a few ideas off the top of my head that are novel but hardly revolutionary. Could put turbulators on the entrance to the jets on storm style blocks for example. You can get more flow down a tube using turbulent flow (used alot in gas pipelines). This raises mean entrance velocity which is an important perfromance factor. Could also try using liquid metal solid state pumping systems to induce pressure waves in blocks which will improve performance a fair old bit. Not new but a little novel. they are all attempts and may improve things but they equally may not be worth the pay off.
