pretty good day

Production delivered to me the first unit of a new product, a sort of multichannel energy meter, around 2PM. The customer picked it up about

4PM. Seems to work.

And then this

Yes, that is nice.

Well, see it this way, with majority lost for the democrats, a new clan of robbers will be given more power, but *this* time you have no reserves... Colosseum comes to mind :-)

What ever will be will be, and is the way the universe unfolds. It is not that, that makes a good or bad day for humans, as that is an internal experience.

But I am curious about white LED data transmissions...

White LEDs for data? That doesn't sound very efficient. They are all over the spectrum, which is bad for detectors and s/n, and the phosphors are probably slow.

It's just like a P7 CRT phosphor: fast blue source excites slow yellow phosphor with resulting complex time-domain results.

Does anybody know what the time-domain output of a white LED is like?

Good one:

" One intangible effect on voters has been Mr. Brown's easygoing way on the trail, in contrast with Ms. Coakley, who sometimes seemed uncomfortable. In the stretch run, Mr. Brown tried to turn Democratic attacks to his advantage, mustering mock anger after Mr. Obama and others derided his pickup truck. "When you start talking about my truck, that's where I draw the line," he said. "

The Checkers speech strategy still works.

Interesting note in that article. "We're always in touch with our members," Pelosi said at an afternoon press conference. "In the House, we don't have surprises when it comes to elections."

What this means, it that they have control of the districting process, so that they know their opponents voting blocks are as segmented as possible! In a state wide race, you can't divide and conquer... ;-)

The difference being that Obama had been idiotic enough to comment negatively on Brown's truck, and Brown was making fun of Obama.

Brown did Obama a favor by letting him off the hook on a very, very unpopular plan. O is too dumb to appreciate it. He thinks he's still right and the only real problem is that the ignorant American public has been insufficiently informed about how smart he is.

He does come off as awfully naive.

Nah, he thinks that ignorant Americans are too easily swayed by 30-second sound bites and talk-show hosts.

And I think he's right about that.

Few people of *any* political persuasion vote based on being well-informed with the facts, IMO.

That being said, I suspect that if suddenly all the voters *well* well-informed, it would likely benefit the republicans more than the democrats. Hard to say for certain these days, though -- I want to believe there are a lot of libertarian types out there (fiscally conservative, personally freedoms liberal) who might then actually stand a chance of starting a viable third party, whereas at present most of those votes probably go to the republicans.

--------- OBAMA: The same thing that swept Scott Brown into office swept me into office.

People are angry, and they're frustrated. Not just because of what's happened in the last year or two years, but what's happened over the last eight years.

Oh, at least Omama is honest, very refreshing for a politician, but a honest politician does not last I would think... As the definition of a politican I have heard was: 'A politician is somebody who can tell you to go to hell in such a way that you are actually looking forward to the trip'.

Honest? Have you been seduced by his teleprompter's charisma? You certainly haven't been looking at what he does.

That is an insult to 'any' Chicago politician. Chicago was the home of Al Capone but he was an amateur, when compared to the Chicago political machine.
