Now you are calling me a liar. Don't. I can produce well over 1500 pages of documentation, 1000+ pages of it related to linuxcnc, all printed in duplex mode over the last 2 years as it gets dated and I throw it out and replace it. Much of it with full color screen snapshots to illustrate the point being discussed in the text. Drop by, and I will do 2 things, first putting some of those docs in your hands so that you can see I am NOT lying, and possibly put a very low cal hand cooler in your hand, or a cuppa coffee if thats your choice, while I show off some of the other things I do around here, some of which when out in public get lots of ooh's and ahh's. Its what keeps me out of the bars. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
