Good luck! They probably have some fine print, like "We accept no responsibility for rending your package into its component atoms" and "by breathing air you agree to these terms and conditions"
I just had UPS send a load of our prototype instruments to completely the wrong address. :(

I know. In most circumstances this is considered theft at the very least and should be treated as such, but no, they cannot be held accountable for this or their actions.
I think its inexcusable. I am owed the full amount for repairs or replacement.

Before the moderators have to speak up, let's move the discussion of shipping damage away from "Post your Cool Pic Here!" I'm about to take a step in that direction. -Rich

Hi everyone!
I haven't been posting for a while, although I've been lurking around regulary. So I thought it would be about time to drop by to say hi.
Other hobbies have been drawing my interest and time away from electronics, but my electronics hobby isn't completely dead. I've actually got an interesting HV and photography related project going, so I might post it here when it's finished.
So photography is slowly becoming my favourite hobby. I shoot with a Nikon D40. I have bought the AF-S Nikkor 50mm f/1.4G lens, because I needed a fast prime for indoor photography without a flash. RAW is my preferred image format, so I develop the RAW files using UFRaw and do some sharpening and editing with GIMP as necessary. GIMP is a really good alternative for Photo$hop, especially when spiced up with appropiate plugins.
Here's a photo I took yesterday:
I've also been messing around with HDR and tonemapping. This one isn't actually HDR, but just a tonemapped jpeg file.
In case you want to see more my photography, you can visit my flickr page. Feel free to add me as a contact if you're on Flickr too!
