a bike builder who doesn't have a frame size for the too tall crowd...

oh and - frustration is setting aside an afternoon to cut sections, but with the need to review them on the scope...
cutting the sections...
walking into the room with the TEM and finding the damn machine off. It is supposed to be on. Diff Pumps work better if they are left on. The ion getter pumps go through hell on restarts. Its off. It has a habit of turning itself off. Sure 'nuf even checking it yesterday, and the day before... sumbitch is off.
OFF i tell ya. So whadda i do? Cut more sections? Well i need to eval the ones i have now. can't fix the damn confocal's joystick POC that keeps floating the stage (almost a dozen, 'hey, can ya look at this?' for that today.
Waiting for a vacuum is frustrating... hands tied... can't speed it along. I dug through some old book marked links... some i know i shouldn't have cause they get me all pissed off. how can people think like that? Seriously? Won't link em here... no way...
Robin Williams is funny... daily show is funny... wishing i could get that show everyday, but not have to buy cable or stay up past my bedtime for it. Put TDS and RW together and ya get this youtube gem
well - lets see if the scope is happy again... maybe it'll be happier and more stable in the new building... i can only hope... for its sake... this system is close to 30 years old... that's kinda old for a high resolution imaging machine

I wouldn't trust those bikes anyways, too wierd that they have a wire as the downtube, just imagine if that wire snapped, wouldn't be a pretty picture. In fact you'd most likely slingshot off the bike :P I think I just made a joke :D
I was surprised to see that they were still around. I thought they had gone the way of Trimble (remember them Klein-boy?)
The cyclocross frame has a double diamond tube set up. No garroting wire.
Wire bikes me no like.
Holy Fark!
Trimble has returned!

Trimble... sounds familar... oh the big mono tube ones? there's a demo Circle cycles bike like that at the Hub...
Cross frame has to conform to UCI rules brainiac ;)
"Cross frame has to conform to UCI rules brainiac ;)"

there's a push to make em legal... and a market for them... those disc bikes generally can be retrofitted with cantis if need be
I am a bit of a Luddite but still don't see the problem with discs.
well remember - its the UCI...
that and one 'argument' was that people would shoulder the bike with hot discs and stick the rear one into their back... i'd think that'd be a liability problem more for the maker than the UCI...
but its the UCI... and well... they are special
