When I took my first digital circuits class (way back in dark ages), the 
circuit board looked so familiar, and I couldn't figure out why.  Then I 
realized that it closely resembled the valve body in an automatic 
transmission, which I had helped me dad clean and repair on numerous cars 
in his auto repair shop.  Makes sense: fluid logic and digital logic...just 
replace the steely balls with digital gates.

My favorite digital gate is the don't gate..no matter what you put in, you 
don't get nothing out.
