abbe (Abbe J Cohen):
Studlier wheels that don't wobble.
Happily mounted to the splufty motors.
Happily mounted to a piece of masonite that's .5 cm smaller.
It drives straight. And well.
That's *both* wheels. :-)
Walls are fixed, and mounted to the base.
Electrical connections happy.
Cardboard cut to shape and bent to fit around/within walls.
Polaroid motor geared to give enough torque.
The rolling piece is starting to fit pretty well with the motor...
Harry West said it was very "aesthetically pleasing." :-)
Now, to get it to work like it's supposed to....
At this point in the term, average hours/week = 13.8 (for a 9 unit class)

gsstark (Greg Stark):
To the tune of ``Mammal'' by _They_Might_be_Giants_
_Mi-Go_
by Bill Keyes, apologies to HPL and John and John.
Chitin shell,
Standing in between extinction in the cold
And explosive radiating growth.
So the ichor flows
Through the large membrainous wings.
Carrying the very strange brain-cylinders that they have.
Mi-Go, Mi-Go (Mi-Go, Mi-Go)
Their names are called,
They raise a claw.
The wings, the things,
Ugly and mean,
Fungoid and green.
One of us might lose his mind,
When he's reminded that they once were here,
From the Mezozoic era, to the cold high Himalayas.
So the ichor flows
Through the large membrainous wings.
Speaking in the very strange high pitched insect buzzing noise.
Mi-Go, Mi-Go
Their names are called,
They raise a claw.
The wings, the things,
Ugly and mean,
Fungoid and green.
Azothoth the father of its sister Shub-Niggurath.
Their cousin called Yog-Sothoth,
Sleeping uncle Great Cthulhu.
Mi-Go, Mi-Go
Their names are called,
They raise a claw.
The wings, the things,
Ugly and mean,
Fungoid and green.
The Ghast, the ghoul,
Deep One, and Dhole,
Byakhee, Elder Thing.

therese (Therese):
Corpulent generals safe behind lines
History's lessons drowned in red wine
Poppies for young men, death's bitter trade
All of those young lives betrayed
All of those young lives betrayed
All for a children's crusade
- Sting
Dream of the Blue Turtles
