  Re: web design (was Re: Scout secrets revealed)
 
(...) Good point. It all depends on how often the nav bar stuff is going to be used. I can imagine some sites/types of content where you're going to want to always have the navigation stuff handy. For others, it's in the way most of the time. One (...) (25 years ago, 4-Nov-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) up (...) Yes, but that's the difference between doing it with frames and doing it without. Put the navigation stuff in a frame across the top of the browser, and suddenly, when you scroll down the page you're reading, the navigation frame (...)

  web design (was Re: Scout secrets revealed)
 
(...) Not true, Eric. It's too bad so few web designers get confused by this. The navigation stuff only takes up space if it is currently scrolled into view. Any long message on LUGNET serves as a good example. Visit: (URL) is a set inventory). See (...) (25 years ago, 3-Nov-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

  Re: Biting tin foil (Was: Lego VCR)
 
(...) I used to have perfect teeth up to one or two years ago, and I never had any problems with chewing tin foil (Hey, I chew a lot of things.. Urmm.. forget I said that.). Then I got two fillings, and when pretty much anything made of metal (be it (...) (25 years ago, 2-Nov-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Engine Speed Regulation
 
(...) (yes, they do regulate power, but I'm used to models not full size, where the water is of more concern usually than the power. Larry, take a look at (URL) some pics of my engines.

  Re: Engine Speed Regulation
 
Well, James corrected me and he's right(1). The Throttle is a restrictor (if you look up throttle, one meaning is to cut off airflow) in the steamline. Restricting the flow reduces the pressure in the steam chest. However most valve gear (cf. (...) (25 years ago, 2-Nov-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.trains)

Thanks for the explanation! (Wow, so it is really possible to explain how the steam engine works without using a single picture!) (...) This looks like the PWM (pulse width modulation) method RCX uses to control its motor powers. Why the steam (...) (25 years ago, 2-Nov-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.trains)
