Update 03-21-08
I'll be moving yet again (this will be the fourth place I've had since putting this website up) sometime between April 10 2008 (at the earliest) and May 01 2008 (at the latest); I don't yet have the new address.
This time, it isn't because of a tragedy or a missed HUD appointment; it's because my sister says the rent here is too high for both of our incomes to pay.
This will be an intracity (within Sacramento CA. USA) move; and very probably in the same general neighbourhood.
More news (and address) as I have it to provide.
Update 03-22-08
The Prometric beam cross-sectional analyser has been dismantled & packed away until I arrive at my new location.
A beam cross-sectional analysis will be posted tomorrow (03-23-08), but that analysis was performed before the instrument was dismantled.
But beyond that, no additional analyses will be possible until after I move to the new location.
Update 03-23-08
Both the backup and instrument computers have now been disconnected and readied for pickup (by the movers), so beam cross-sectional and battery discharge analyses will be on hold until after I've arrived at my new location and set the equipment up.
Update 03-23-08
No, you aren't seeing things.
Yes, a same-day update.
I just heard that we're going to go "month by month" on our lease here; apparently the move will not take place in April as had been previously planned - it has been postphoned for an as-of-yet unknown period of time. This web page will be left up, because moving *IS* inevitable - I just don't know exactly *WHEN* at this time.
The primary reasons are that my sister will be too busy looking after our mother after her hip operation on 04-01-08 and taking care of the dog - who is old and rather ill - this will leave her with insufficient time to look for a new place (a rental house or an apartment).
The Prometric beam cross-sectional analyser has already been packed away; setting it back up will be a rather lengthy process, and isn't something I can simply do "overnight".
Update 03-30-08
The hip operation that my mother was supposed to have on 04-01-08 has been postphoned until 04-07-08; as far as I'm aware, the surgeon's wife croaked, so another surgeon had to be located.
As a result, there is a small but not insiginicant chance that the move could occur by late-April 2008 as originally scheduled, as my sister now has an extra week in which to look for an apartment or rental home. There is no guarantee the move actually *WILL* occur at this time, but the possibility exists.
Update 04-05-08
The hip operation that my mother was supposed to have on 04-07-08 has been postphoned again until 04-14-08; she told me that her new surgeon's wife had a baby last night.
Update 05-06-08
I have learned that the move will take place sometime between late-May and early-June 2008 - approximately 4 to 6 weeks from now.
Update 05-13-08
My sister told me last night that the new place will have no storage, and that I will ***NOT*** be able to keep nearly this much stuff in my room, so I stand to be forced to leave behind approximately 50% to 70% of everything I own when we move sometime this June.
When this occurs, operations at The LED Museum will be scaled back CONSIDERABLY - though I hope not halted 100%.
Some things *WILL* be kept no matter what, like my yellow & blue DPSS lasers, my violet lasers, at least some of my green DPSS lasers, the spectrometer, the ProMetric beam cross-sectional analyser, at least one variable voltage/variable current power supply, at least two of my three desktop computers, my laptop computer, all of my CDs, at least some of my R/C aircraft, and as many of the flashlights & other items that rated four stars or higher on my website as I can find before moving day. O, and the royal blue Arc-LS - don't want to lose another one of those things ya know - I lost one in mid-2006 when I moved from Seattle to Sacramento, and boy was I urinated.
As a result, the new (but still dreadful) "
