				What nerdy thing have you done today?
			 I'm ashamed to admit that until tonight I was a 36yo nerd virgin.  No longer.  I have soldered! Been meaning to turn Theo's "traffic light lamp" from a box with colored plastic and some bulbs into an actual controlled traffic light. Tonight was the night. Whipped up a simple control loop on my Arduino. A few LEDs, resistors, and a bare minimum of swearing later (only screwed up the circuitry once and the soldering once), voila!
