  RE: So why build robots out of LEGO in the first place?
 
Let me propose a set of commandments for "Lego Good Style Construction" (blames and riots are allowed): 1.- "You should love your Lego's in the same way you Love your life" 2.- "Any damage to a Lego part is completely forbidden. The home-brew (...) (27 years ago, 7-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: #9 Shell sets making appearances.
 
(...) It appears that some Shell garges will quite happily let you walk in with a wad of cash and carry off whatever you want whilst others require you to have purchased petrol. I've been fortunate in that all the garages I've been to have been the (...) (27 years ago, 7-Jan-99, to lugnet.loc.uk)

  Do these elements exist in green? If you have some will you sell?
 
I'm doing an SW-xxxx (probably a 1500 because it won't have top rounded windows) and I decided to do it in C&NW colors because yellow and green aren't used much in existing Train models. But I've discovered that I'm short (or have, but don't know (...) (27 years ago, 7-Jan-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build, lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade, lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: RcxCC Joystick controls
 
I don't see the problem. The Joystick in RcxCC deals with this without any problem. Use the drive-steer mode and choose the correct driving and steering motor and you can remotely control the car from the computer. (Drive-steer is not available in (...)

  Re: #9 Shell sets making appearances.
 
Sorry, I appear to be a bit slow! Do you need to buy petrol to get points to get the Shell sets, or can you just walk in with a wad of money and buy them? Not that I have a wad of money but still! Cheers, Richard (27 years ago, 7-Jan-99, to lugnet.loc.uk)

  Re: 3 sensors = 8 inputs?!
 
(...) The way the inputs work does not allow hooking something up to two inputs at the same time while still keeping independent use of the inputs. You would need to add at least diodes.
