Lots of good ideas - Pager motors with a rack attached may be "the"
thing I need, the control electronics could be completely remotely run
(I'm going to keep looking and thinking <G>)  Cheap is good, servos
would be great (don't need exact positioning so no encoders etc. needed)
- some servos are too large for part of this, some might be just right
for part of the deal though.  I think I need to start playing with
"popsicle stick and hot glue" mockups some time and see how it goes <G>
