Yeah, sorry that sounded a little dismissive, didn't it? Didn't mean it that way.

Yeah, those things are cool. I'm recording the first few episodes on my DVR to see how it turns out.

Pretty neat. I recognize the second thing as one of DaVinci's creations but I can't remember if it's one of his tanks or boats. I'll assume it's the former although I can't see any obvious signs of mobility.

The other thing I would not have recognized as DaVinci's but it looks like a siege tower. If that's the case, I don't notice anything revolutionary about it (but I'm sure there is something).

I think a lot of his stuff was just on paper.. Don't know if he actually built them though...
