[edit] Sugestion for External Link

To whoever is "managing" this page, may I suggest an external link to the "Heath Robinson Rube Goldberg (HRRG) Mixed Technology Computer" project at http://www.diycalculator.com/sp-hrrgcomp.shtml. The idea is to create a computer out of a mixture of implementation technologies, including relays, vacuum tubes, transistors, simple integrated circuits, pneumatic logic, magnetic logic, and so forth.

Interesting, but a far stretch from being related to the topic of this article. Femto 13:11, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Pneumatique

I am astonished that Wikipedia has no article describing the history of the pneumatique, or pneumatic postal/ telegraph service in Europe. It was the "Express Mail" of its day. I can't write it because I don't know enough about the technical end without drawing heavily on this article:

http://www.compulink.co.uk/~mhayhurst/jdhayhurst/pneumatic/book1.html

and I don't want to make a Wikipedia article that just looks like I transcribed a website. --Bluejay Young 06:19, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

There's a brief mention at pneumatic tube. It could also be expanded with information from the German de:Rohrpost article which looks very detailed, if someone wants to translate. Femto 11:50, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
