“The problems encountered in this particular project was somewhat exacerbated by the tight deadline I’d given myself. Hey, this is neat stuff, and I wanted to get the word out. Of course, the tight time frame amplified the impact of any problem I might encounter. Confident in my own abilities, however, I happily drove off the cliff.So I assembled everything, but as I usually do, I left the case cover off.
