The boards are a little out of my price range at the moment. But definitely wanted to support this project, so I have backed "Buy us a Beer" at $5.

Have another go at Go. The handicap system is wonderful. It make two players of what ever standard have an equal match. There is a reason why Go is old and globally the uptake is far bigger than Chess - it combines very type of thinking. Strategic versus immediate tactical. Thinking globally versus locally. Chess appears too 1 dimensional now by comparison.

A Puffin - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puffin_crossing may have a near-side detector, that will cancel the demand if you move way from the crossing. i.e. have crossed in the gap.

I am a traffic signal engineer. They don't.
They may have a detector (ir-red/mircowave/inductive loop) that detects your approach. At night, as they may be no conflicting demands - the side road will change Green ASAP.
