    That's approximately the force exerted by something that weighs a pound. Not exactly a light touch, I would say. I'd guess it would be something like the buttons on a credit-card remote.

    Popped in for a quick hello-

    Thats's too weird... I just got into trials as well! I've attached a picture of my new bike, a Onza mod. It's been a tough adjustment for me, I'm used to the springiness of front suspension helping out. Eric

    The first Op-Amp !

    I saw these at my University a few years ago, but never paid attention to them. Here's me with a K2-W, K2-XA and two others: Here's a closeup: Here's an old IBM memory core; thousands of tiny toroid magnets with four wires through each. Can you imagine threading all those fine...
