God - good question! I've been toying with that for a while now, but
haven't come to any hard'n'fast conclusions. At first glance, I would think
some sort of orientation (ie: mercury switch) sorter would have to be in
place. All I know that since I built mine, I haven't had the time to
thoroughly test it. Besides, it's always getting into mischief all on it's
own, without any further tuning from me (yet).

Jee..almost time to write a software simulation! 8P
