Yeah that looks like it.....humm wonder if it could be re-engineered to 
use a single microcontroler...Atmega88 (or similar) AVR would prolly be 
what I would use cause I have experince with the AVRs....but I guess you 
could prolly also use a bigger/more modern PIC too.

Indeed, someone needs to point out to him that block capitals 
(especially bold ones), are much harder to read :(

Cheers.
