Is that the same as the "micro - charge pump" made in
07/99? That's the only thing I saw by Wilf that looked
possible.

the BEAM list e-mail). Any way her show ended so I grabbed the remote to
channel surf and saw a show called Dateline. They did a short segment on
the robotic fish that was recently posted on the list. I believe the
fish are being sold for about $140 U.S. They also had a jelly fish and a
lobster/shrimp type bot. If you get this program check it out. I am on
East coast time in Pa. (U.S.) so some people may have a chance to see
it. The ideas look really familiar.
