That would be KICK ASS!

By the way Hol - if you want a job on the edge of 
biotech/robotics/engineering - I think Synthego is also still hiring 
(the only thing that sucks is that they're down in the valley). 
Otherwise let's hack :)

First meet up I'll set up for us is an open source PCR hack night!

> grey/blackwater treatment units, closed-loop irrigation with
