Googling around... it appears like safety in relation to what an employer

experts is a bit
Inspect guy wires, inspect weep holes on applicable towers and make sure
they are clear of debris, use binoculars and plan a climb path before

Chuck,
I'll be working with the kids again tonight. Hopefully we'll have
time to go in a bit more detail. The 555 is appealing being it can
do many things. We can use it as a timer, we can use it to flash
leds, etc. The kids will only have to learn about the 555, caps and
resistors.

In my mind, a 555 timer is more difficult to understand as it has a
comparator and flip flop inside amongst more things.
I guess it depends on the opinion of what is easier to understand. In my
mind, relays are easier to understand than logic in chips like that.
For example, you can have a
