He learned that from Rupert Murdoch. He just hasn't put up the subscription link yet to read the entire article.  ;D


I used to want an Armatron SO BAD. I think my mom was afraid I'd end up working in heavy construction rather than the foofy art she did encourage.  :P

See above.  You can't control an armatron electrically without adding motors or some -really- creative solenoid usage.  Theres no linkage from electrical to mechanical.

Armatron 2 -- the one with the wheeled base, is a different story.  Wired controls by default on that one.
