I ran into a description of harmonic drives earlier. I hadn’t seen anything quite like them before, and they are just so cool – flexible driven gear for high torque, high fraction engagement, and inherently loaded for zero-backlash. Even though there is a little marketing in it, this description is really better than wikipedia’s. I love it when neat things just appear in my field of awareness.

Despite my manly looks, I am horribly timid. My romantic soul gets all clammy and shivery at the thought of running into some awful indecent unpleasantness.
