Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus, Don Lancaster is from...

COMPARED TO SOME OF THE POSTERS HERE DON IS A GENIUS ( I DON'T COUNT )

- JUST TAKE HIM WITH A GRAIN OF SALT -- I'LL GIVE HIM CREDIT - HE DOES A FIND JOB OF SPAMMING HIS WEB SITE THRU THIS AND OTHER GROUPS

You're a jerk. Take your personal problems to a shrink. If Lancaster bothers you, it's you who has the problem, not him.

Lighten up, turd.

Absolutely.

No, as a matter of fact, I haven't, but I have fielded a couple of designs that I adapted from a couple of items in his cookbooks.

Thanks! Rich

What? And let jerks like you work your smarmy little smear job on Don? No way. This doesn't call for a light hand.

ESAD!

Let's see, that would be the auto maker and the water meter company.

I don't see his ideas as being really nutty, but he does have some funny names for things, like "Magic Sinewaves" and "Gurugrams."

But the reason I have respect for Don is he's right more than half the time, and that's NEVER true of actual nuts. I do wonder why he spent so much time writing raw postscript code, though.

One thing of his that's always worked for me is the "Active Filter Cookbook." You'd think it would be obsolete with Spice on computers and such, but the thing is it's all there, you pick out your slope, what curve you want, and here are the values, just scale them for whatever frequency and impedance you want (presuming the opamp will operate in the circuit within its specs, and he talks about that too).

I dunno, my major complaint is with him being such a famous electronics author and all, I thought my First Printing TTL Cookbook would have sold by now, even in its crappy condition. What would be a fair price for it? I've obviously been asking too much for it.

HOW DARE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DON IS A COMPLETE GENIUS WHO IS CRITICISED FOR NOT AGREEING WITH THE MAJORITY!!

"MY LANGUAGE HAS BEEN MURDERED, MY LANGUAGE HAS BEEN MURDERED, MY SHOPPING TROLLEY, MURDERED, MY GROCERIES JUST GONE!!!! I DONT LIKE IT!!!!""

YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your screaming will only embarras Don. Who are you to jump in here, isn't DL able to respond himself? If his deciples are like you, his guruship seems pretty low class. :-(

Ur-anus would be the *obvious* choice, but you missed that you loser troll wannabee twit.

This was his ultimate quest to quench his insatiable urge to calculate optimal hang time to the eighth power.

Let's see, how many people don't know Uranus is between Saturn and Neptune???? Probably smarter than the average Jensen, I'd speculate.

Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus, Don Lancaster is from... EBAY (He is a paid employee and an undercover spy from the Ebay company).

Now you know the whole truth and nothing but the truth !!!!

And he lives in New Mexico in an underground complex near Roswell.

Villa De La Homeboy

So a "Tinaja Quest" is his codeword for going to see the alien bodies? (and I don't mean the ones that didn't quite make it from Mexico) I always wondered about that.

Don is NOT in NM, he's in...

Thatcher, Arizona

...Jim Thompson

Don doesn't live in NM, he lives in Thatcher, AZ.

...Jim Thompson

Oh my God...... Are you telling us that YOU and DON are having an affair????

I know, dont ask, dont tell....
