Hello everyone, I am in the midst of my first programming attempt in years, attempting to discriminate 3 levels of light with a light sensor, and have it do different things depending on the maximum light intensity.

Whoo hoo-- Toys R Us here in London, Ontario seems to have slashed the price on the RIS 1.5 down to $199CDN (about $120USD).
