A subway that carries beer
Posted by FJ and G on Monday, March 1, 2004 9:19 AM
On Monster House (Discovery Channel) last night, they did up this house with an air-tube (pnuematic) delivery system. Four transparent pipes went from the kitchen to all rooms in the house and even to the mail box.

The system worked like at some bank drive-in windows, with a "tube train" delivering bottles of beer, food, and any other small object throughout the house.

The system could be converted to run an air-powered subway thru the house, along with the beer.

No electrical problems to worry about, and would make a perfect subway and beer delivery system.

That's fine for a low carbination brew like Boddies, but Bud would probably need a little settle time after the ride........perfect for sending the kitty downstairs though.....
