has three of James P Hogan's books free from the publisher in your chose of electronic format:

Inherit the Stars The Multiplex Man The Two Faces of Tomorrow

I downloaded them a few days ago, but haven't felt up to reading them, yet. I used to read about five books a week, till my vision got so bad.

When I go to the bookstore all i see are reprints of books i read 20 years ago, or things that aren't really Sci-Fi. The local library system has almost nothing. The Sci-Fi category is full of witchcraft, demons, and bad horror stories. The only real Sci-Fi are the older Star Trek, Star Wars and Battlestar Galactica books. I like the old '60s and early '70s "Space Opera" series, like Perry Rhodan, and others with some continuity from book to book.

Yesterday, was down the local nick, looking at mugshots of local (known)chavs. There were 130 to look at. Supplied courtesy of the police national computer and filtered on items such as age, ethnicity and locality. Surprised (only a little!) when told they were all within a 2 mile radius of me. That's one sub group of white, 16 year olds, of a certain height and weight range. The (local area) 'complete' chav-scum set must be a damned sight bigger. Today, I've bought from Ebay, 3 high resolution, I.R illuminated cameras and a fancy DVR thing. This kit is expensive but I've got to do something about my rising insurance costs. Twenty years ago I'd have been foaming at the mouth wrt all the public CCTV cameras and my loss of civil liberties. Nowadays I'm just not all that sure. English society is in change. john

They already had a pay account to download three or four of their newest books on a month by month basis, as well as the free part of their library. I would wait a few days and try it again.

But it did not cost me that much, PC records, about 1GB / day, erase if nothing happens in a few days. PC is on as server anyways. There have been an amazing lot of downloads of this soft :-)

Yes,they've confused Sci-fi with fantasy.

Next time I'm at the library,I'll jot down some of the sci-fi titles that IMO,you might like.

"Inherit the Stars" is the first of 3 books in the "Giants" trilogy. It's great. Read that 1st,or "Two Faces",leave Multiplex Man til last.

"Voyage" was the first Hogan book I ever read,IIRC.

I like the Miles Vorkosigan stories by Lois McMaster Bujold and the Commonwealth stories of Allan Dean Foster.

running 24/7,

nothing happens

Jan. Couldn't get in your (secure!) site. It wants some kind of name and password. Yes. First option was recording on my PC but as it's generally only switched on a couple of hours for a sim' or email or the newsgroups etc, I figured a fit-n-forget, hard disc based DVR, the camera and lighting PSU's, all together in one place, would be next best thing. Thought of also linking in the existing PIRs but knowing the false triggers due to squirrels, cats, foxes and hedgehogs, I thought again :) john

Yes I added the bot trap, a new search engine comes on line every week it seems and then download the whole site (about a gigabyte) several times within the shortest time bandwidth allows. You should just enter: For user: guest For password: none This _is_ indicated, at least in Firefox....

Yes, the outside IR detectors give some alarms as people walk past the house too. But the system now takes pictures at 2 frames per second, with date and time embeddded in screen, compressed in H264 (mpeg4) so you can just watch the movie of the previous day.... I have nice movies of sunrise... :-)

I've only had one infrared yard light thing, and it had a sensitivity adjustment, supposedly specifically so you could avoid triggering on small animals.

Good Luck! Rich

A student at Leeds University was doing that, late at night in the computer centre. He didn't realise that he was being recorded on CCTV and got sent down when someone checked the tape.

You should perhaps set up a tar-pit: redirect to a virtual server serving /dev/random over a 16 kb/sec link!

Yes, nice idea ;-) I have module rewrite installed, problem is the number of entries is now getting enormous after running this server a few years, so I have resorted to an even meaner way of killing offenders: Using iptables as firewall:

-A INPUT -s 84.97.245.140 -j DROP

-A OUTPUT -s 84.97.245.140 -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-port-unreachable

There are now 270 entries in the ipchains firewall.

I am not sure if it is legal, I also run a name server, these guys will never find my IP again ever via hostname lookup :-)

Many are killfiled because they try URL redirect, 140.245.97-84.rev.gaoland.net - - [04/Nov/2006:06:02:04 +0100] "GET http://88.191.22.160/cgbdm.txt HTTP/1.1" 404 899 is enough to semi-auto add this IP as a firewall entry. In spite of the 404 denial, do not want my server a part of a botnet.

If life was that simple, see my other reply on this subject. Many do not even check robots.txt, and also download binaries, zip, pdf, tgz, bz2 etc. Now I allow google pdf, but one is enough.

I've seen and tested a magnetostrictive pulse transmitter wired that way (see OP), but not tuned, of course. It worked fine, for a quick toy. An old camera flashwas used, and the current pulse must have been pretty impressive.

For fast high current discharge use one of those Siemens gas discharge protection devices, these are sometimes found in high end telecoms gear and also in gas igniters on appliances like gas cookers. A capacitor is charged to around 220V either by mains or a BO inverter, the primary of the spark coil and the gas discharge tube are in series across the cap' when the voltage on the cap' reaches the gas breakover it dumps the charge in the coil.
