Hey guys, I have been over maxed out since Sept with life, work and the display, so I have not monitored the forums much at all. But, I just had to share this story with you.
Yesterday I got written up in the Seattle Times. So naturally the visitation stepped up a notch. Around 9pm, enter Bobby a 7yr old, his Mom & Dad and Sister.
Guys I tell you, Bobby will be hanging out here in a year or so. This kid is RJ in diapers. He had a electronic DIY resume that embarassed me (granted not hard to do), but would rival some in these forums for sure. He was tossing out terms like 555 controllers, switch circuits, voice animation LED light up costumes, it was amazing. It was no BS either. His parents were just rolling grinning and rolling their eyes as if saying, you should live with him. They won't let him use his soldering iron cause he is so young, they run it, or he wires bread boards. He consumes Electronics for Idots type books and has his own project library of things to come because he either can't afford them, or is still learning about them. This kid is a sponge when it comes to electronics. He asked technical questions that MOST ADULTS don't even get to. Needless to say I was entertained for at least an hour.
He has my contact information and I told him I know a few forums he has to start hanging around. Watch out guys.
I hope everyones displays are running flawlessly. Merry Christmas to all of you! You guys are great.
