Hi there, List.

My physics teacher is giving us an assignment to find acceleration
due to gravity by using a pendulum. I was trying to think of a
counting mechanism, but my limited electronics knowledge stopped me.
I was wondering if anyone had some kind of circuit that could could
start and stop a count activated by touch sensors. Any Circuits or
diagrams would be appreciated.

P.S.
Turtletek, I hope your turtles are doing fine...
I just had a goldfish that died and another jumped out of the tank a
week ago. sniff. There goes C$1.10
I'll shut up now.
