  Re: Good Trader List proposed
 
(...) Actually, I'd rather like the idea of a comprehensive list, rather than an exclusively bad or exclusively good list. For example, let's say Joe X. is a "bad" trader. Suppose 14 people have dealt with Joe and have all gotten burned. If he (...) (25 years ago, 1-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.theory)
 
  Re: Polybags
 
(...) I need to reverse my trade deficit so I can use up the packing I'm saving. I have no need to save polybags for packing... (25 years ago, 1-Dec-99, to lugnet.fun.crafts)
 
  RE: Tilt
 
(...) As one who collects pinball machines (I have 10 now), you are refering to a plumb-bob tilt mechanism that is in use on the newer pins. (...) Right. There is a metal rod to which the plumb-bob is attached (a solid metal cone shaped item) and a (...) (25 years ago, 1-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)

  Received my RIS 1.5 Upgrade Kit
 
Hi, FYI...I received my RIS 1.5 Upgrade Kit form S@H Canada on Monday...about 2 weeks after ordering it. It was free and I didn't even pay S/H. The postage on the box was about $3.45 (Can.). Nice surprise, since I figured it would be months in (...) (25 years ago, 1-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Gratis LEGO tegen inlevering van Airmiles bij V&D

  Re: Crappy Plates!
 
(...) At the two McD's I checked out, the promo sets were kept in a bid abutting the heated food-transfer chute. Dave! (25 years ago, 1-Dec-99, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: What colors do bricks come in?
 
(...) Alien vomit yellow (as opposed to beer yellow, the color of classic space canopies). Just kidding. "Antifreeze" seems to be one of the most common appelations. In our household we call it "vidalin," after the name of a brand of liquid vitamins (...) (25 years ago, 1-Dec-99, to lugnet.general)
 
  MindStorm competitions (rcx on univ.)
 
Hi there, Has anybody list of universities where the MindStorm is used? I`m looking specially for research areas, where RCX (or RCXes) are used as part of complex system (and this is controlled by neural net, evol. alg. or something like this). I (...) (25 years ago, 1-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: Bad Trader Alert!
 
(...) Umm... just a suggestion-- it's probably not a good idea to post addresses and phone numbers to Lugnet unless they're your own, although I don't think I'd be so adverse to posting the email address... But thank you for the trader warning! (...) (25 years ago, 1-Dec-99, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: WalMart vs WalMart
 
(...) You've had much better luck than I have, then. I tried this with the Mystic Time Lab set (great for parts!) this Spring - on clearance for $25 at 1 Wal-Mart (bought 3) but still full price ($80?) at another. The grouchy lady there wouldn't (...)

  Re: Good Trader List proposed
 
One thing which can be a problem with a "good trader" list is the implication that if you're not on the list, you're a bad trader. I see this a lot with eBay. How do you get yourself started (a big part of my suggestion - don't kick off with your (...) (25 years ago, 1-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade, lugnet.market.theory)
 
  RE: Tilt
 
Another solution for detecting tilt would be the kind of tilt device used in old pinball machines (I don't know if it's still used). I'm not sure how to explain it, but I can give you a similar example: Hold a pencil at the end between your index (...) (25 years ago, 1-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)
