Re: Popular Science Magizine article on first

I spotted the issue too, Al. I suspect that they're mistaking "motor" for "pneumatic cylinder", or that the wire in question came loose due to a steep bend putting added stress on the connector and there was a communication error to the reporter.

Definitely a nice article though. Better than most I've seen.
