Bob,



   May I make a suggestion?  Years from now, someone searching through 

the archives (or their own G-mail) will read:

and discover that the tinyurl has expired.  Including the RS part # in 

the text - in this case, 275-001- will give them something to search for 

on the RS site.

Tinyurl's don't expire.  Of course that doesn't mean the service will never go away.



Do not archive

    Hi Dale,



    The header paragraph in the tinyurl.com front page

    includes the following statement:



    "By entering in a URL in the text field below, we will

    create a tiny URL that will not break in email postings

    and never expires."



   Are you perhaps thinking of another service?



      Bob . . .

Nope.  Just a non-optimal choice of words.  After 28 years in the 

computer industry, I have less than full confidence that a free service 

like tinyurl will continue forever.  Maybe they are well funded by a 

subsidy from one of Gilby Productions' other operations. Maybe ...

He's right you know, Bob.  You've got to be able to read computer 

industry speak, which doesn't necessarily correspond with any known 

language.  Words like "never" and "forever" are loosely translated to 

"for as long as we feel like it".  You should plan accordingly.

On another completely unrelated note, mpja.com has some nice 

panel-mounted temp guages for $3.95 that have a remote probe.  The 

supplied battery will cost that much at the corner drug store.  One for 

OAT, one for carb temp and half a dozen more for various temps that I'd 

want to measure, and I'd still not be into serious money.

Not so fast Ernest.  I found that item, at least I guess it's the right
	


one.  "Requires 1 "LR1130" button cell. (Not included)", so you've

probably doubled your cost.

Hmmm?  I paid 3.95, and it included the button cell.  Taped to the side 

of the LCD so that it wouldn't be run down when I got it. Go figure.

YMMV.
