You guys are awesome.
   The metastable is generally a horrendous thing in electronics -
   yet if you think about it, it's kind of the Zen state from a
   computer's POV. It's reached a higher plateau and wants to stay
   there for a while. tongue emoticon

   But the electronics designer has to keep dragging the poor
   electronics back down to this planet 'cause it's GOT WORK to do
   here. hehe
