This diffraction grating is a standard diffraction grating used to separate white light into its spectrum.
CapSelector
The Unihedron CapSelector provides an inexpensive way to tune a VLF loop over a wide range (120 - 5510 pF) of capacitances.
It replaces expensive and bulky high-value variable capacitors or decade capacitor banks.
It is a passive device and therefore requires no power.

Grocery Getter Helper
This program will enable you to shop for groceries much faster.
I originally needed something like this many years ago but did not
have the tools to program it for Windows, so I found something close
to it written by someone else and
used that until I found the tools to write my program for Linux. FREE / Open Source.
saydate
A Linux shell program that says the date. Simply type saydate and the program speaks the actual date
(e.g. "the date is thursday november the twenty-fifth nineteen-ninety-nine"). saydate home. FREE / Open Source.
