Short is sweet :) Anyway got to wandering what the control panel might look like for controlling the weather not the axis but this has possibilities too.

Here's a famous example: > http://www.buzztones.com/images/pitchfork.gif > Well according to Merriam-Webster I think that the object in question could be easily confused... Main Entry: pitchfork : a long-handled fork that has two or three long somewhat *curved prongs* and is used especially in pitching hay Main Entry: (1) trident : having three teeth, processes, or points (2) trident 1 : a 3-pronged spear serving in classical mythology as the attribute of a sea god (as Neptune) 2 : a 3-pronged spear (as for fishing) Had you draw it > > ((( > > \ > > oo/\ > > .|| > > || It would have looked more like a snow shovel (and who'd be fearful of that...unless your 15 & your Mom is telling you the driveway needs to be done). Now personally when I read it I got a big kick outta the fact NB even pissed off the mighty Poseidon, so naturally I thought it was a trident myself. Either way, and what ever it was, it is secondary to the strip and certainly not worth bickering over. * * Damn you snow! * * * \ ((( * * \ \ * * * oo/\ * .-. * * .|| * ,-' `. * ~~~~~~bb~~~~~~~' `~~~~~ --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

I was going to say "needles", and it would be easier of the tines were magnetized slightly.
