You know how much we encourage all of you and Jim and John to write
books. :-)


When we retire :-)

But seriously, there won't be much of an audience. I can't cater much to
folks that run a uC to perform the job of a one-shot and stuff like
that,
and somehow that seems to become the majority these days. Those guys
won't
buy the book because it'll mostly contain <gasp> non-digital stuff.

Hello:

This topic has been on my mind for a while, i have lurked this groups for
years
and come to admire some of you guys, but then i learned about your age and
got
worried, because as you know, nowadays the new EE's are not really into
analog,
and i feel it's becoming a lost art, i would like to follow your footsteps
when
i graduate or at least have an internship with guys like you, and not
simply
code


Send me a resume.

I'm still a couple of years from graduation, but the real problem is
we are litterally an ocean apart. But thank you, i might just do it
anyway!



uPcs, keep waiting to hear about you writtin at least some notes about
tricks,
and gotchas and stuff like that, i don't mean to be rude, and i might go
first,
but you guys are pushing 70's and the statistics are against you...

Well, that was unkind. Actually, two people commented on my age
recently, one a customer and one my grand-daughter. Punks. So I had my
hair done.

I apologise.



So if you need and incentive, John, Jim, Joerg, Jan, please write at least
notes,
something like the old HP Journal used to be, i'm sure it would inspire a
lot of
us.


I'm intending to write three books, eventually. But writing is hard
work.


I said book, but is not really "book" "book", sorry, for that, i wanted to
transmit an idea, that's why i mentioned the HP Journal, instead of a
full blown hard-cover book, i sugest someting like "articles", small
snipets, that are self contained, whith a whole story, tutorial,
insider look, aproach, whatever, that you can write in a few hours and
put it on the web, or on your hard disk with instructions for it's release.
That way it's done while it's fresh and you have the details on your mind.

Setting yourselves to write a real book is a task that will be delegated
until "i have time" but, by then many ideas will have faded/forgotten to
provide enough material.

Best Regards
Steve Sousa
