Well since doDryDingleDongle is the only function I could just put it inside the void loop... But doDryDingleDongle makes perfect sense to me:) do whatever the dry dingle dongle needs to do... over and over. I get your point though. maybe ill name it

By random noise I mean I have a couple other arduinos talking via serial/xbee as well. And since the Xbees seem to just read/write to serial anything that any other xbee says I dont want them to step on each other. I may try just timing them differently but this seems to work for now.
