(...) Whooaaa!!! very neat stuff here, very good documentation of your projects. I especially like the solar powered RCX with auto-shutdown/resume... Any chance to get the schematics of you Geiger counter interface? Congratulations, Philo (19 years ago, 7-Feb-06, to lugnet.robotics)

Hiyall. I just got my Lugnet posting access working again, so I thought I'd post a here's-my-Lego-webpage link.

(...) Hi Steve, yeah, sorry, I wasn't inferring that lugnet.robotics has insiders or anything like that. It just seemed obvious to me that SOMEBODY should make the list (I hope!). Anyway, as you said, we'll find out soon enough! -aps (19 years ago, 6-Feb-06, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Nice idea, but two questions: How many GBC modules used an RCX? And how many of those RCXs had a free sensor port? Of course for next year's NXT-based GBC, with proper programming, a single BlueTooth cell-phone could turn off the 10% of the (...) (19 years ago, 5-Feb-06, to lugnet.robotics)

Hi, I think as a name XT sounds cool. That gives XTOS for an operating systems and my favourite XTC for a C like programming language (you have to say it out loud a few times). Seems to work OK with Java and Fourth. Thomas (19 years ago, 5-Feb-06, to lugnet.robotics, FTX)
