Cool. What constitutes tearing down a car in this case?

We disassembled it as much as we could on day 1 of the show and started putting it back together about halfway through day 2.

Sounds epic, I hope there are pictures!

Something very specific that's been on my mind for years: I used to occasionally go to a hacker space in SF called Noisebridge. They had a couple textbooks there, but one was this insanely cool almanac of various circuits that can be used to create different devices. On the off chance that someone here goes to that hacker space or knows what I'm talking about, I'd be thrilled to know the name of that textbook.

Was it the Encyclopaedia of Electronic Circuits by Leo Sands? They have their library posted online if you want to see what they have.

Wow that's an amazing lineup! Sad I can't go, I'd love to see all those talks. I'll have to keep an eye on this for next year.

Sold out anyway apparently, so nobody can go unless they already have tickets.

I'm pretty sure it was sold out, and PP comment seems to say so as well now.
