  14. * KTong's Robotic Arm
  15. * -------------------
  16. * This is from the laboratory of Kevin, the "mad scientist"
  17. * LOG
  18. * Day 1: The arm got built really fast. This LEGO company makes things really
  19. *  easy. Fortunate for me since the storm is starting to roll in.
  20. * Day 4: Got Eclipse and leJOS set up today. Took me a bit as snow is starting
  21. *  to build up outside and my fingers are getting rather cold. The weather
  22. *  forecast looks good for tomorrow though. Looking forward to a sunny day.
  23. * Day 8: IT'S ALIVE!...sort of. It moves...sort of. I'll figure it out later.
  24. *  The weather forecast took a turn for the worst so I got to start getting
  25. *  ready for the snow storm of the year apparently.
  26. * Day 10: Car broke down. No one in sight. Luckily I have some food rations
  27. *  saved up from the last storm. They are past the expiration date but they
  28. *  should be fine I think.
  29. *  
  30. *  I haven't had much time to work on my arm but at least I added a touch
  31. *  sensor.
  32. * Day 17: Rations are dwindling. I can bearly tipe. It'sss getting rewally cold
  33. *  iin the ccabin. And the arm issn't really werking write now.
  34. * Day 3?: mwahahahaha HAHAHAAA HAHAHAHAHA ... ** cough **
