Strawbale Archive for May 2002

The individual, multi-function sensors appear to be no bigger than the tip of a 
pen and it appears that a hundred or more of them can be controlled by a ~$30 
integrated circuit which then takes all the info and sends it to one's computer 
so that it can do the book-keeping. It may even make peanut butter and banana 
sandwiches too for all I know ? 

And I'll bet that a hard-core gizmologist like the Derelict-in-the-Rough could 
find a way to cannibalise the platinum sensor parts from any one of the old 
486's that he's using for doorstops. Me ? I have trouble just reading a 
thermometer.
