SO my fan is due to be taken out the back of the barn.
Whats the latest in Fan technology ?
Who can recommend a good Fan ?

its for the computer room (got one window in it) which also has a Big CRT TV and CRT monitor so it gets a bit warm here.

The illuminati deliberately withhold higher fan technology to keep us all hot and frustrated. It's part of their plan to prevent us from realising they staged the WTC attack.

Get one that uses that fancy light-bending technology - where the blades of the fan go half invisible when the fan's on. Amazing stuff!

fans cut the molecules of air and create toxic gas, only the korean government is brave enough to acknowledge this to it's people, the rest of the world powers are trying to smother us with their fan death

and make bad imitators


personally, i love that it's taken 17 posts to get a serious one - they're all funny but he has to know. its very important with summer on its way

those massive fans you see in factory's and bunnings are good.

just finding out where to get them is hard

I had a fan and it broke. I think you should build your own, if you want it done right, you better do it yourself.

The visual is amazing. This had me in tears of laughter.

Yeah, why not aircon? We have evap cooling which works a treat but I guess QLD is a lot more humid so it won't fly up there.

I dont sleep with a fan on.
i know what can happen.

Spell it out for the rest of us - what can happen?
