Space: the Final Frontier Hacktier. These are the voyages of 757 
Labs; to boldly go where no Lab has gone before...
     (Dumb, but somebody had to say it sooner or later.)


     Do we need new waterproof Identification Labels ("If found, 
please return to..."), or are we going to use the same one's from last year?

     If so: I made 'em last year by using Scotch Thermal Laminating 
Pouches (available at Walmart).  You don't need the special machine 
to seal them, I used a clothes iron and lots of weight (I basically 
did a push-up on top of the iron for two minutes.)  In keeping with 
the concept that we should all switch roles each year, I can offer my 
lessons learned (i.e. you need to slide the iron from the side so air 
bubbles don't get trapped; I held the iron on for too long and they 
yellowed a little bit) to who ever makes the next batch (or for any 
other project where waterproof labels are needed [Autonomous UAV, 
Underwater ROV, Mini-Wave Glider..].)


     Good Luck!
