Sounds really fun - lots of interesting projects - count me in, if I
can make it.

I think mid to late November would be best for me (but probably not
thanksgiving weekend.) Sadly all of late September through late
October is out for me.

Second half of November will probably work best for me, if the STS133

I worked at NASA Wallops Island (Eastern shore of Virginia) around 1972-73,
and it was quite awesome.  I got to assist in the blockhouse during a launch
of a satellite (Meteoroid Technology Satellite D) on a Scout D rocket 
(3-stage,
solid fuel).  That was quite awesome.  I also got to see a lot of exotic 
stuff
being launched.  I was about 1000 feet from an exametnet super-Loki 
datasonde, a 2-stage
solid fuel rocket that reaches 100,000 feet in about 6 seconds.  It 
develops 120 G's
at launch, and literally disappears while you are looking right at it!  
That is used for
ionospheric research.  It coasts to 600,000 feet plus on inertia, then 
heads back down.

I also saw the reference test of a DOE program to gauge the effects of 
missile nose cones (MIRV reentry vehicles) coming
down through heavy ice in cloud tops.  The reference test was done in 
clear air, though.  It was just a bright orange dot
that swept across the sky.  It went from launch to touchdown in the 
ocean in 19 seconds, covering 20 miles.

I also got to ride in the little room just behind the center of a 60' 
dish used for data acquisition from
satellites, etc.

The place is all closed now with some kind of Navy research programs, so 
I couldn't give my kids a tour.

  Ok - I want to schedule the Wichita Fest for Friday 12 Nov 2010 thru
however long anyone wants to stay the next week. The shop is working 4 days
so we should have Friday, Saturday and Sunday to work on projects without
much interruption. We can stay during the next week and work around
everyone.
  Most of the shop thought it was a neat deal last time. I fielded a lot of
questions.
  There are a number of cheap (not 5 star) motels in close proximity.
  Come for the fun. Bring a project to program, wire and/or machine.
  Please let me know if you are coming so I can arrange room, electricity,

Do you have 240 3Ph available? I can bring a step down if needs be. What 
I would like to bring is the motors and limit switches to do a rough 
setup and tune. These are Fanuc red caps and PicoSystems amps to be 
fitted to a small HMC. The power supply for these is 240V 3Ph input.


Anyone near SW Wisconsin want to share a ride?

I've made plans to be in Wichita that weekend.  I'll probably arrive
late on the 11th and leave in the afternoon on the 15th.  I look forward
to seeing some fellow emc folk there.

Of course, immediately after advising Stuart that mid-November was fine 
for me,
my boss said there'd be a meeting in Texas about that time.  Well, 
there's a good chance
the Texas meeting will actually have to be moved to a different time, 
I'm hoping so.
So, Stuart, how is the weather there in mid-November?  I'd hate to have 
to slog
through a foot of snow in a low-slung Honda Civic.

Jon,
  If there can be normal weather in Kansas it is not usually heavy snow. It
'normally' is cold and cloudy and rainy during November. Ice is more likely
than snow.
  It will be good to see the EMC2 people again. I have been having the EMC2
DT's.

  What part of Texas are you from? I was in Dallas three weeks ago and two
weeks ago I was in Laredo.
  I used to say "The best thing to come out of Texas is I-35 North". I
married a Texas girl so I can't say that anymore.
  Kansas is not the end of the world - but you can see it from here. :)
  It would be difficult for me to organize a Texas meeting so I will stick
with Wichita, Kansas meetings.
