      I read most of your posts , even the stuff I don't understand - yet .   
   Your technical knowledge is way beyond what I "need" to know , but it   
   gives me insights into why sometimes things I do get unexpected results   
   . Keep on posting !

   ----------------------------------------   
   I appreciate them even though my MIG is limited to auto body repair. My   
   broad knowledge outside the immediate subject helped me find a work-around   
   to solve problems the deeply but narrowly educated engineers hadn't. If I   
   couldn't fix it I knew what type of expertise to call or measuring   
   instrument to buy or build.   
      
   For example a very precise custom instrument I built had a mysterious ~30KHz   
   noise interference. The engineer suggested filtering but I solved it by   
   creasing and stiffening the side panels to eliminate capacitively coupled   
   resonance from the building's ultrasonic intrusion detectors. I traced an   
   unsolved random DC offset error in an op amp circuit to rectified pickup   
   from a local AM radio station.
