08/08/2012 Autistic Power, Devoted Teen, and 3D Guns

From time to time there comes a couple of stories of the power of being completely focused, whether it's an addiction, an affliction, or an enthusiast condition. Forgive me for that last one... From an Autistic Man's Memory to Playing Video Games for 4 Days Straight to finally Printing out a Functional Gun! Today's one show to definitely listen to!

An autistic man went out in a helicopter for 30 minutes. Looked upon the horizon and memorized it, so he could draw the horizon like a mad man from memory later. These kind of stories scare me, I mean it's the power of the mind... Power of a somewhat defected mind? I know it's sad, but it's true. Don't apologize, it's not like you're ever going to have children anyway.

A 15 year old Ohian boy decided to play Modern Warfare 3 for a 4 day period. Apparently, he only emerged from his room to procure snacks or take a shower. I'm going to assume he pissed and shit in a bucket. Precisely, and after the 4 day period he collapsed... Sadly he's going to be OK.

So, apparently this is real; a man has "Printed" a gun... WHAT THE FUCK!? Yeah, he downloaded the schematics and apparently printed out a 3D model of an AR-15 that works. There seems to be a printer that produces 3D replicas in layers or something... So, this is a real thing? What's next for the future? Transportation devices?
