   Not exactly. You can get a range of values out of a single RIS touch sensor
by varying how hard you press on it... but it's a really small rnage of
pressures over which it varies. Hook a touch sensor up to a port configured for
a raw value, and very slowly press it in - there are intermediate values.
   That said, I'm not sure about the NXT touch sensor. That may be
simplification for public consumption, or it may actually have a mechanically
binary state.
