I challenge you not to look at this and make a ping/spring/boing happy sort of a noise.

Hmm, my noise was kind of a combination of a long, drawn out sighing "Phew!" and a fist-clenched celebratory "Yes!! Get IN there!!!"

Oh, right on!!! What a welcome sight. Get it in there, baby, get it done!

"Phew" is the best word, I would say. Now it's time to put some ice in there.

Great news on the door. Here's hoping that all goes well on the sample delivery. I for one would not like to be the person to enter the "vibrate on" command, then have everyone waiting to see if the short circuit acts up and kills the whole vibrator circuit or the whole instrument.

Question from old TEGA thread:
QUOTE (jmknapp) .....So should they not have a D:H and C13:C12 measurement already? My (non expert) impression is that since the first sample was devoid of volatiles -- CO2 and H2O -- the signals would not be large enough to easily check ratios. |

Maybe so--here's hoping the recent success with the doors will widen TEGA's perception. The sound that comes to my mind, courtesy The Doors, is a combination of "break on through to the other side" and "come on baby light my fire"" MP3. "If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things through narrow chinks of his cavern." -- William Blake -------------------- |

Yea!
It looks like they've successfully uttered the command "Open Sesame". |
