Ok whatever doctor evil you know there's still plenty of money available 
people want to pay to "B players" for work, yeah?

Beats me why you seem to claim you stopped after one magazine article.

Thank heavens no.

I think you don't like women very much. sad thing is I don't expect you 
even know the half of what they've been saying and snickering about you 
behind your back all these years you'd like 'em even less if you did I 
suppose. Never got over the first time Sally Cul-de-sac called you a 
fag, much less the five-hundredth. Is that un-PC enough for you?

Is she an electrical engineer?

Are you?

I would 100%, any day of the week hand a collection of JL's and John 
Doe's posts along with mine to a representative collection of "normal 
Americans" and let them vote on who the "drug-crazed" one is. Hell you

Of course John Larkin does continue to advertise the fact that he's the kind of gullible twit who falls for climate change denial propaganda.

Good luck.

I don't have to "look" for problems.  The problems are there if I look or not.

That may be... or it may not be.  I'm going to give SS a try before I do another design in LTspice.

Why do you say the .lib statement is needed?  When a vendor gives me an intrinsic model I've found that I can make it a sub circuit and not have to clutter up the schematic with .lib statements.  Are you saying I don't need to create a unique symbol for this component if I add the .lib statement?  This would be the first time I recall anyone saying I did not need to create a unique symbol.  Maybe I missed that.  Once it is used in a design it can be copied.  If I don't need to create a symbol, that means I need to do this same editing to the symbol every time it is used in a new design, right?

Ok, that is yet another way to remember for creating new components.

Seriously. The quip about Charlie Brown kicking Lucy has nothing to do 
with real life, no normal person would take it that way. Political 
correctness has a strong influence over weak minds.

Nothing on an engineering level. One of my simple designs was 
published in Electronics Now magazine, I was paid for it! That 
simple design was picked up by a major university professor for use 
in his lectures (maybe on static electricity). If electronics design 
were chess, I would be a B player among grandmasters. I miss the 
feeling of power when playing around in it.
