    I like it!

    A directable chute would be another nice way to send them to the correct container but I like the fact it is a gantry as you could have an extra axis and be putting M&M's all over the place [noparse]:)[/noparse]

    I'm surprised they didn't say more about the prop.

    I would love to change the world, but they won't give me the source code

    People say that if you play Microsoft CD's backwards, you hear satanic things, but that's nothing, because if you play them forwards, they install Windows.

    I spent a minute looking at my own code by accident. I was thinking "What the heck is this guy doing?"

    Considering the "reporter" got confused between resistors and LEDs and then didn't know what an LDR was I would not be suprised if he didn't realize how good the propeller is.

    lol. Everyone makes mistakes, but I agree, Will is no Captain Crunch.
