  Haha and all this time I thought that was just a decoration.
  
  Now my 128K EEPROM board contains the code to decode it's own message:
  
  

  CON
          _clkmode        = xtal1 + pll8x
          _xinfreq        = 10_000_000 + 3000
  
  OBJ
          term    : "tv_terminal_010.spin"
  
  PUB start 
  
    term.start
  
    term.out(%01000001)
    term.out(%01001110)
    term.out(%01000100)
    term.out(%01010010)
    term.out(%01000101)
    term.out(%01001001)
    term.out(%01010011)
    term.out(%00110001)

  boeboy, just look at your Hydra, there is a weapons array and it is filled with anti matter and plasma, so don't try to break it. [noparse];)[/noparse]
