Re: DM42 Firmware V3.1 available

I was taught not to use the Oxford comma at primary school. I was taught to rewrite sentences to avoid ambiguity. Some of my friends, however, were taught to use it. Same country, same school system, different instructions. It seems what we learn and hold to be true depends on what our teachers were...

[*]Remember the English list sequences "A, B, C, and D" where Germans list "A, B, C und D".

Re: buttons that don't register well

I'm just concerned about peeling that clear plastic back. Will it rip? How many times can it be peeled back without loosing stickiness? How hard is it to align the domes? I am terrified of breaking it.

I'm a physicist.
Me too. I enjoy chatting with other physicists about the work they're doing, but as I am typing this I'm realizing that perhaps this isn't the appropriate place for that discussion.

I'd really appreciate if posters would read what they posted themselves. Thoroughly. Always. Reliably.
Accidents happen though, and I make mistakes frequently enough that I dare not take your side on this.

(thanks to Keith Dalby for help)
You're welcome, I think. I can't remember doing anything and anything I did do was probably wrong anyway, I'm far too amateur, but it's always nice to see your name in lights.

how much (if applicable) did you pay?
I worry your name here will cause confusion.

I had no customs charges for it in the UK.
