I just find that the art cannot be appreciated without sufficient visual input. The problem is that most internet (...) (25 years ago, 17-Mar-00, to lugnet.build.arch)

| That set search feature on the main LUGNET page is really handy. I was momentarily annoyed when it first appeared (even though I had read Tod's warning), but now I really like it.

| Hey - Those controllers are great for running extra lights and motors. In fact, on my old layout, I used my train controller to control some motors on wind-mills because it made them run at a very slow speed, and I used one of my mindstorms outputs (...)
