  • Ming Dynasty: treasure ships, clothing, language
  • The Game of Go: accurate puzzles, strategy, and portrayal
  • The mechanics of making an ice-cream parlor secretly seaworthy (and clifftop release mechanism)
  • Competing Marxist doctrines and relevant English publications
  • Coast Guard disaster response protocol
  • Building an astrolabe with a watch and first principles
  • Radio protocol at sea
  • Amusing space supply toys, historical and modern
  • Methods for accessing public satellite data (mostly NOAA)
  • Calculating subshell patterns in chemistry
  • Project Blue Book (what if they used black ops money to continue their work?)
  • Wuxia history, genre, and martial techniques
  • Building a radio from other electronics
  • Pacific Ocean history buoy drift data analysis
  • Building a cipher based on a graphical binary keyed to a hexadecimal base
