Sorry Eric.  I certainly didn't mean the word "toy" to be derrogetory in any
way.  Must be a cultural thing.  My job is to create room sized "toys" which
weigh several tons, contain thousands of kilowatts of potential and/or
kinetic energy, and require special connections to local electrical

So once again I say of your inventions.  Those are really cool toys!  Take
it in the spirit it was given.
