Just a quick note for those of you who have been trying to build the SC1 Servocores with the 0.01uF capacitors as listed in the parts list. That's an error! 0.1uF is just fine. Documentation has been revised accordingly. Sorry for the error!
As the crisis continues, we received more and more email notices from suppliers & vendors offering us "assistance" in this "time of need".
I am so TIRED of hearing about this ineffectual "help" coming from companies that have reported huge profits over the last 5 years. It's time to step up and act like humans, and volunteer to help your customers & clients. Don't make us jump through more hoops. We're already stressed and overloaded. I'm way too busy trying to keep our small business afloat and keeping what staff we have left employed to play these games. Corporations may be persons under the law, but some certainly have more heart than others.
In contrast, what are we getting from the small companies we deal with LOCALLY?
A sincere thank-you to our fellow small businesses that are reaching out to us with real offers of help.
Stay safe,
Dave Hrynkiw
President Solarbotics & Active Tech Calgary

Rory Nugent (of Solar Xylophone fame) has posted his thesis presentation to the Interactive Telecommunications Program, which heavily features BEAM devices. By "building things with a sense of life", he's documenting what we've known for a good while - autonomous devices ("pets") offer unusual interesting relationships. Keep up the good work!
