	A cannister containing a set of experiments designed by high
school students is schedualed to be sent up on the space shuttle on June
4. Unfortunatly the group sponsering this project has run into problems
with person in charge of the controller board. They are in desperate need of
someone who can donate the material and the time to produce a simple 
controller board. The controller must turn devices on and off, based on 
the current time, or the termperature. I figure they need some kind of cpu,
an a to d converter, some kind of temperature sensor, and a multiplexor. 

	What they can offer are some limited funds for hardware, a limited
amount of travel money to the shuttle launch, hotel accomodations at the
launch for two people, VIP tickets into the launch area for the takeoff and,
if there is any TV coverage, they will mention you or your companies' name.

	There is about 60 days left to get this controller programmed and
tested. If you cannot help, but know of an off the shelf controller that
would do what is needed, I would like to hear from you also.
