Thanks!

I’m still trying to figure out how this all came about.
An email to my son (Oldbitcollector) must have started the ball rolling when
we discussed a computer that could be verbally commanded and respond by
doing real things like starting the car or the coffee pot.
Then he posted a few photos of the junk-bot we built in Mongolia on his site.
Ken, at Parallax, ended up sending me a complementary “What’s a micro?” kit.
Now it’s been 2 weeks, and amazingly, I’m beginning to understand this stuff!
Excellent tutorials and great support!
Thank you Ken!

By the way: if you want to do voice commands, you have the option of The Say It Module or
