I've got the new look from duo in place. Contact me if you see any problems. I really like the new look. If you view the source, then you might see that there is an alternate stylesheet called "Brown" which is the previous style, so if you prefer that and have a cool enough browser, you can use it. It's going to look a littled screwed up until I change some of the stuff to match the new HTML structure, but it's usable.
I was getting a candy bar from the vending machine yesterday, and there was a big sticker that said that it was equipped with the Golden Eye™ Guaranteed Delivery System. There was a sticker that touted the abilities of this system, and it looked like so:
"When a customer makes a selection, the spiral will rotate one revolution. The Golden Eye™ sensor will detect if the product has dropped into the delivery bin. If the product has not dropped into the delivery bin after the initial spiral rotation, the spiral will make up to two more complete turns in an effort to vend the item. After three revolutions the customer can make another selection or refund their money by pressing the coin return button and the spiral will automatically return to the "home" position."
So, basically, it turns the coils until something falls out, or until it turns too much, in which case it give you your money back. A little anticlimactic, I must admit.
Perhaps I should employ a similar system for my door/basement problem discussed earlier? I could open the door until someone comes in, or until it opens three times, at which point I get my money back. I don't know why it would be coin operated, but we'll let marketing worry about that.
