I check messages here roughly monthly along with the only other
newsgroup I still follow… whenever I actually remember to do so. :-)
But of course there's usually no activity at all. :-(

I still like learning about lighting technology. Over the last year or

and their software programming support and have been having quite a
bit of fun with that, especially the color RGBW bulbs.
