I'm "new" here and thought I'd say "hi"... or "hi again" since I was  
on the list several years ago but got distracted by other stuff and  
took a hiatus.

Been interested in robotics for ~ 15 yrs but only have a few circuits  
and a lot of sketches to show for it. I've had a renewed interest  
lately and so my wife got me a robot kit to experiment with. It's AVR/ 
ATmega8L-based. Having a lot of fun with it so far (I put together a  
blog, below, which has a couple entries on my goofing around with pwm  
& motor control).

I'm definitely liking the AVR setup far more than the Basic Stamp I  
was playing with back in the day. :) Figured this kit was a good  
starting point versus the ridiculously ambitious plans I had in the  
past. :)

I am up in Denver but DPRG has always been awesome, so I couldn't see  
myself doing anything robotics-wise without joining up :)

Anyway happy holidays!

Michael
