Friday night – vanderpauw

Really, really busy at work these days.. but I’m liking the material.. one interesting and biizzarre thing that came up there today was this attached image.. Several folks saw this shape in one of the chip test structures tat we make at work.. and reported it as anti-Semitic. it turns out it’s a pretty well known structure called a vanerpauws cross used to measure sheet resistance.. but.. you gotta had it to someone for picking this up.

Got home late after working too long Diane had left out an article for me to read about our house in our town newspaper.  the Times Ink. It had been written by a kid working at the Vt Youth Conservation Corp.  The kids had actually done some research.. I actually learned some new stuff.. .. like the house had $1400 worth of damage durign the flood of 1927. Who knew ?

After dinner I helped Gabe and his friends set up the high speed camera.. we made a big mess shooting at eggs and crackers..

Somewhere in there Phil and his father in law came over to borrow some fuse for a project they were working on.. I took advnatage of having the fuse out to do a small coffee creamer fireball.. It was bpretty on such a dark night.

Well .. that’s really it for the day..   let’s see what tomorrow brings..
nite all.. nite sam
