History is being made faster than I had realized. Here is an article on Wired Magazine's website about a couple of Stanford professors opening up their course on artificial intelligence to all comers ...

Yogi Berra might have said “It’s hard to predict the future because it hasn’t happened yet”, but as far as I know, he didn’t. We don’t know precisely what the chall ...

Bob,

Thanks for the heads up about Free to Choose. I have the book and remember the series. I will look on the web for the programs to see them again.

As educators, you and Dr. Dee will not be a ...

Bob, I was so pleased to see you mention the Khan Academy. It is a great example - as is your aeroelectric list - of the extraordinary but becoming ordinary benefits of modern information technology. ...

A few years back, I used the tape that I had bought for the wear protection on my flaps and put it on the top edge of the tailgate of my pickup to protect the paint from being rubbed off by the bottom ...

Yes, I certainly agree. That was so unusual it made me wonder just how it
got through.

Thanks, Matt. That is another one of my dreams. When I was a teenager, there
was a doctor building a boat about the same size as this one of his own
design which he had in the water at Bellingham, t ...

I don't recall having the mixture control rotation reversed. But then it has
been quite awhile - and maybe I have it backwards!

Here us a link to some photos of what I did a few years ago for that same
combination. I seems to work pretty well, but then again it has never been

The recent version of AutoCAD (2010) that I am been using handles 3D very well, but it costs about $4,000. I have been using AutoCAD since about 1985 for architectural (building) work, but I virtually ...

Think of it like I do when the phone rings in my architectural office these days. It’s probably a wrong number, but at least I know the phone works.

Thanks Bob & the original poster for this interesting little diversion. Let
me add to it with this link:

Way back in the 1950’s, my Dad had an electric feed cart that we used on our mink ranch. The motor was the starter-generator out of a 1928 Dodge. I remember that when he decided to buy the semi- ...

With the skillful use of the delete key, you can edit the list to whatever you want it to be. I enjoyed the diversion and very much appreciate the excursion Bob started us on. Not to say that I agreed ...

I completely agree with Raymond, including my favorite being the
Aeroelectric list moderated by Bob Nuckolls. I subscribed to the original,
the RV list, back around 97 or 98 and have been contributi ...

Thanks, John. Because it is so immediate and convenient, it's easy to forget
how world-wide this list (and the internet) is. I'll bet even Al Gore didn't
realize that when he invented it! Smile

I think the RV-8’s sliding canopy slides all the way to the vertical stabilizer.

Greg,

Yes, I don’t intend to install it now. My project has been stalled for a few years. I don’t recall just what the last software update is, but I think I could figure it out. ...

I have a never-used Blue Mountain EFIS/one gold box sitting in my shop.
