Yes, Steve set me up well (emphasis mine, heh!):
With almost no time to prepare we will be taking a test flight of some new equipment at this years CNHT Annual Taxpayer Family Reunion Picnic in Hillsborough. If you are there, and you should be, we’ll be (most likely) set up in the far left corner from the main entrance (by the emergency exit). Come watch Skip wrinkle his brow as he looks over the top of his glasses and fusses with all the new stuff.
Well, a whole lot more than a wrinkled brow with hands waving and lots of muttering. Back to Edison:
“I have not failed 10,000 times. I have not failed once. I have succeeded in proving that those 10,000 ways will not work. When I have eliminated the ways that will not work, I will find the way that will work.”
Or something like that as it seems he MAY have said something like that, or some derivative of that, or it’s just folklore. Anyways, I found a whole bunch of ways to NOT make it all work (and spent an addition $900 in trying….sorta). Sigh…good thing most engineers have backup systems in place.
