Look out Archimedes . . .

It's the Cormanedes!! Archimedes supposedly set fire to the Roman fleet who was coming to invade his native Sicily before they even reached land. He did this by using mirrors to focus the light energy from the sun at points on the ships causing them to catch fire. Cool, huh? We're just trying to catch these invading leaves on fire, but there's potential here, don't you think? Hopefully, they don't try it on other parts of the house!
