This is very cool! Thank you for proving that the framework and tool 
enable people to rapidly solve problems like that which is exactly what 
it is supposed to do. Very cool.

When I saw "accelerometer" I instantly thought, wow, maybe PythonCard 
is being used to test components being stuck up on Mt. St. Helens. ;-) 
I live in Portland, so people are naturally interested in the little 
quakes and dome growth.

I guess this is what you were testing?

You realize of course that if you write a weblog that you have to make 
a post and include the relevant pictures :) If you don't have one then 
maybe I'll bug you for some additional material and post it on mine 
sometime or start a "PythonCard Success Stories" page on the main site. 
I'll probably tweak the code to use some of the 0.8 conventions and 
classes, but it will still work the same.

I would love to hear other stories like this about what people are 
using PythonCard for, how it has saved them time, etc.
