Louis called today and said he won't come at all. This was great news because I have a lesson with Robert. I spent some time memorizing the routine then went to meet him at the studio, This was a different lesson but pretty good in that he showed me a few things about how to lead. I need to memorize more of the routine, especially part 3. Tonight I perfected wings!!!! I'm happy with the simple flavor of garlic, pepper, onion and salt. I found that SIP, formerly OSPi, has a plugin to use relays instead of the Open Sprinkler hardware. I started wiring a cable for my 8 relay Chinese board I bought a while back. After blowing up 2 hardware boards I'm going to carefully wire the relays to the Pi. I also got NCID configured correctly. The alias file is case sensitive, I saw the errors in the log which helped me debug the file and get it working.
