Sad day today.

Interesting. Maybe all possible steps/transfers were covered by "and so forth" and it wasn't needed. In years past, there have been many impromptu competitions of "how many points can I get off of ONE step?", and I've seen some incredibly complex results, but I have never, ever i...

In that vein, it's probably not Kosher. But what if the task before actually DID sort the mix? Then it IS legal. All is states is "and so on".

Cataract #2 removed a week ago. Because I barfed the whole way (9 miles) back home after the first one, they used much less of a different anesthesia, so I saw and remembered a lot more of the procedure. Right eye cataract was highly crystalline, and I got to see it while it was being removed. It wa...

Parallel? Far most likely it's not, depending on how it was built. If all three sort bins are on a lever, it's one step (combined mass, not optional mass). Plus, there's a very specific exemption in the rules for BONUS . NOTE: Mistakenly entered "Task Completion" instead of Tasdk Completio...

Well, with two eye surgeries and a heart procedure in recent weeks, this has to be my latest start with Mission ever. Northridge (IN) in a week, so I'm cutting things close. Seeing now just how much stuff is going to be different from the Olden Days, I suspect I'm going to have to sit people down fo...

Umm. . . Photocells and photoresistors are the same thing. Cadmium Sulphide, resistance varies by photon contact. Photocells don't "generate power". They dissipate it, or at least they do until they blow. Phototransistors have polarity; watch out. They'll also blow at the slightest wiring ...

A couple of years there was a similar ruckus over using photocells without transistors. Here's a freebie from The Old Man, in non-electronic, non-math terms: 1) Find photocells with a relatively LOW "ON" resistance. 40 Ohms is the lowest I've found at discount prices recently . Get a bunch...

Well, lucky me! cataract-filled lens gets removed Dec 19, right eye follows Jan 2. Replacement parts already ordered and are waiting to be installed. Full front-end alignment. In between eye operations, I get a heart monitor for a few days. Folks at work are already betting that I'll probably take i...

Unless, of course, I'm annoyed with you at the moment.
