Pretty quiet around here lately

I think it is the best ever for DIY. far eclipsing the (Electronotes)
ENS- 1 days.  Boards, parts and kits are available at reasonable prices.
 Schematics, designs and help are shared freely. Enthusiasts exist and
are engaged at all levels.  Snobbery is out, civility is in. The list
managers are cool.  Things are pretty Ok (to quote a 5 year old buddy).

I think the thing that sticks out like a sore thumb is that all of these
people selling stuff are sharing their inspiration.  I'm certain that is
not as lucrative as the side work that they could take.  

I am going to enjoy this, this is cool.
