Data logger

[John Formsma]

I remember some legal stuff on the list a while back. Not being a
lawyer, I couldn't tell you if that kind of stuff can be patented. I
mean, after all, it's not like DC invented any new material. They are
packaging what is already available, and making it convenient for us
to buy in a small and ready-to-use package (not to mention a very
expensive package). But all those materials are available elsewhere,
and I don't see why it would be wrong to purchase it on your own. I
don't because it has been more convenient to order as needed. However,
if I were installing systems on a monthly basis, I'd probably look
into buying things in bulk to save some $.
