That argument is invalid, one I can make any circuit turn into a fireball by overloading it. No paper needed!

You should stick to basket weaving then.

Any self respecting engineer should know how to turn innocent circuits into flaming balls of destruction.
As to the basket weaving: these strips of wood used to weave the baskets can be honed to a very sharp edge along one of the long sides.
Just saying!

Until you've seen an analogue hardware engineer run out of the building with a chain of spot-welded-together, red-hot-glowing, rechargeable batteries going "Oh sh*t, oh sh*t, oh sh*t" you haven't lived!

The problem that you can short the circuits accidentally while reaching your coffee or biscuit
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

I've seen this or something like it before. It is pretty amazing technology.

I'm currently unsupervised, I know it freaks me out too but the possibilities are endless.

Great for teaching, but I'd probably use something else to fix the car.

The Buena Vista Social Club is on their farewell tour and performed in Brussels yesterday.
One of the best performances I have ever seen. It was awesome.
If you still get the chance, get tickets

Just a guess...is it "One Night in Paris"?

I dreamed of one day being allowed to play the triangle at school. I was only given the Claves (which, to be honest, isn't an instrument at all, it's just two sticks).

If we'd had sticks in music class when I was at school, I'd have been banned from them as well...

So er, they didn't give you the drum kit to go with it?

Once they did. And once was enough times for them to realize that was a bad idea.

Hey, cheers Fredrik - I didn't know they were called claves, but I am after a pair. This knowledge will stop me having to go into Dawson's & ask for a pair of sticks to bang together!

Knowledge is power!
In this case, the power of not having to ask for sticks to bang together, and isn't that the sort of power we all seek?

That sax line was the first "other instrument" solo I learned to play on the guitar. It had a huge impact on my playing style. I will hoist a drink in his honour.

He would have definitely have joined you in a drink Pete - as would Gerry.

My brother learnt to play the sax a bit. Like many (wind) instruments its easy to pick up the basics, but making it sound great like Raphael Ravenscroft could is the clever bit.
