Re: Failing analog inputs?

HW and SW people always seem to be at odds with each other, esp when something is not working like it seems it should.

There is something I call "computer science 101 syndrome" typically when a student takes their first programming class in college, they are given a very simple program to write, like add three numbers and print the result.

half the students will make a mistake in the syntax or control language or something (esp when using a mainframe) and they wont be able to see the problem in the code, so at some point they exclaim:

"THAT STUPID COMPUTER IS NOT WORKING RIGHT!"

You are in good company, and you are not the first!
