I had to look up the word "kludge".  It's kind of impressive that you got it working even if it's a kludge.  That's a huge hurdle -- even more so without much of a R&D budget.

I used to watch Star Trek when I was 10 years old or so.  I liked it but probably didn't fully appreciate it at that age.  It has been too long to remember the technology on that show.

Thanks... 

...but it's still a kludge. You ever watch Star Trek? Remember the Borg? Remember their tech ...? It's clunky, crude, ugly -- disturbingly so. Sure, it's effective -- amazingly so. But it's nasty . 

That's how I feel about that work. It's clunky, crude, ugly, and nasty -- but it's brutally functional as well.
