[GreenKeys] The Movie Pearl Harbor

[Nick England]

My “favorite” was in the TV movie about John Walker. Navy Radiomen were
using a row of HP 608 signal generators as radios. Barf!

A few years ago our little company made a 3D laser scanner that got used in
a CSI TV episode. They did a good job of showing how it was actually used
at crime scenes. The only thing they did was make our scanning infrared
laser beam visible. That’s understandable.

Some other show contacted us and said the plot was that they would scan the
crime scene and then the computer would show exactly what had happened
several days before. We explained that would take a time machine, not a 3D
scanner, and politely declined.
