Hmm, impressive, Brian , apart from copping double whammy (being sensitive),
nice to see decent insights in Borghia's footsteps .
You're right Inge , it's a quiet creature until you poke it , than it tops
arachnid family easy (chases dogs out!).
Central land taipan (snake)is nastier still , long story .
Sleeping on Qum carpet under sleeping bag on terrazzo floor(bad habit from
past),
zilch room for crawlies, ticking devices, ninjas, spare girlfriends, etc.
The old guys from camelot did indeed quite well, selling to speedline,
and rolling in money to new horizons;
probably as clever as ibm (speedline) letting intel(talent) go (in scale) .
Reading it all , just flat out (daytime too) on floor automations (any
fellows on DFA = vertical stacking ?),
sorry to lay low (somebuddy must be relieved), this place goes through the
roof .

thanks for the note Inge (did predictably well), the classic card (my
ultimate aspiration);
the subway I read over mt.

PS
If anybody hides any Design For Automation tips ; I'd eagerly collect ; if
possible ;
it would be on the same note as automated telephone assembly "pick and
place" ,
just the "components" are up to square foot case from carousels or magazines
.
What I'd be particularly grateful for,
any Minimalist Biodesign trends (flex, conus & clips instead of hinges and
screws)or tips.
Is anybody bedding/seen components (electronic)to base/top case (with
dispensed tracks) ?
I've heard about calculators without boards , circuit (custom IC)in back
plate , buttons membrane sandwiched with front plate.
Is there any DFA forum ?
Steve ?

thanks again

Subject: Re: [TN] Dispensing, nov-99


Dispensing arachnid toxins: probably the Sydney funnel web spider in
both toxicity of the venom and the quantity. The smaller male dispenses
about half the quantity of the female, but the venom is five times more
powerful, amongst the most powerful venoms in nature. It is a beastie
that is found only within a 160 km radius of Sydney and can cause
regular human death if the bite is not treated medically within an hour.
Some snakes are worse but only because the quantity of venom is greater.
After all, the SFW spider (female) grows only up to 7 cm long (male 4
cm). The venom is best not put in your syringes :-)

Guess we will need a Swiss specialist. For Certina or Swatch, it's a pixel
of a cake.

What about that!!  And they say that they can avoid the disaster causing
centric rings that are oftenly caused by  the today's way of manufacturing.
The DL guys are from Camalot, but started on their own, of some reason.

design with a special heater for making the viscosity constant during
operation. The question is if they can manage 80 and 160 microns dot
dispensing. You can see the new pump and syringe yourself at
<www.asymtek.com> or read in EMI  october -99 Volume 10 No 8 page 8.

So...it's not only a pump and syringe problem.

it's an australian creep making it's net like a trumpet, lives unseemingly
near people in gardens and is named 'minors' or something like.  Wrong said
my opponent, the most deadly is a southafrican 'sand crab spider'. Aussilek,
check under your bed and tell me, I think I am right.
