sunny, clear & calm here in Vegas.

We are at 116 days without any moisture. Not even a little dew on the
pumpkin in the morning.

Today was 80degs with winds about 5-10mph.

Terry,
No hail anywhere that I am aware of. To be honest...I wouldn't mind a bit of
wet weather again, I think 6 weeks ago was the last time I witnessed any wet
stuff. The flying field is all dust and dirt and temperatures are only just
becoming bearable.

Within the 10 ten in the USA.  We even drive on the correct side of the road
and play real football ( UT ) here.

School was closed here in Farragut, Knox county schools today also. I think
the few flurries we had over the weekend and the TV shots of the northeast
being buried caused a "sympathy shutdown" of Knox county schools. :)

I understand and sympathize. Over hear on the East side of the mountains
there were snow flurries seen on last Thursday morning somewhere in the
county so they delayed school opening two hours...

Yeah, TN sucks. My property taxes are 1/3 they were in NY and I tried but TN
refuses to collect state income tax from me. Weather sucks as I long for
those January and February days of shoveling snow, chipping ice, mind
numbing cold and falling on my butt.  I can drive a car around in my house (
full scale )...... Guaranteed immortality wouldn't get me to move back.
Wait, is that a banjo I hear in the background ??? Ed M.

I call it a re-use of the dining room.  We had a 12 inch 'dusting' as well
in DC.  Black ice everywhere this morning.  I am having fun turing Balsa in
to mounds of saw dust.

Dean,
           What snow?

It's only a 12" dusting.....Signed, ex Boston MA inmate....

You should just "get a room" for yourself and the "tuned-pipe-pundits", then
talk 2-c's and pipes until the snow melts! That will keep you all sane!
:-)))) John's RV is vacant right now.....

Yeah, John!
What ever happened to the "obvious to one skilled in the art" clause? 
Maybe what is patented is the arrangement of servo-box, or extension arm ...
in any case, this falls under the heading of re-patenting the wheel.
Granted, on a 3-D only setup, I'd hook up to the servo this way!

Never have seen it before, but I guess the main question I have concerns the
potential for loss of effective torque transmitted to the control surface.
I see that they claim it's better due to no losses.  That would be true in
the sense that you don't lose that little bit in the linkage friction etc.,
but if you only want, say, 25 degrees of surface throw each direction, it
would appear that you would have to limit the servo travel to 25 degrees as
well.  If that's true, then you have less mechanical advantage for a given
degree of movement for the surface, since you would normally have a servo
traveling about doub! le that distance.  The control surface speed would be
quicker, assuming the load is handled without any blowback or slowdown of
movement due to the effectively lower torque transmitted while moving.
Maybe I'm not seeing it right, but it looks like it might not be such a good
thing to use, unless you were alr! eady planning on having something close
to a 1:1 correspondence of degrees of servo arm movement to degrees of
surface travel.
