except if your from limburg - but then... as I understand it, you people from holland dont really consider them dutch anyway, right?
^ nah, we consider everybody Dutch except the Frysians, from Friesland/Fryslan/whatever-they-call-it, but they had that coming with all their crying for independence and whatnot.
my Arduino Starter Kit arrived today. got it unpacked and made it blink an LED. then i followed Ada's tutorials and made an LED on the breadboard blink in a different way. that was it for tonight. really cool. lots of stuff to learn and get used to the little wires and things, but i'll be alright
