This is exactly what they make full size decals with cut-outs for.
Just re-mill, then place said sticker over the port covering the mistake
I have a mini-cnc with Mach3 on the desk next to me but I haven't gotten it fully up and going yet. I know of CamBam but haven't actually played with it.

My experience of CamBam is RUN, RUN FAST & Hide!

Is apparently the reason[^] why our winters are getting colder:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-25771510[^]
Quote:
Scientists are saying that the Sun is in a phase of "solar lull" (aka a "Maunder Minimum[^]") - meaning that it has fallen asleep - and it is baffling them.
History suggests that periods of unusual "solar lull" coincide with bitterly cold winters.
Does this mean I can send my heating bill to Bob?

Colder?? Uhm... I haven't seen snow (or below zero (°C) temperatures ) here in weeks... it was sometimes even as warm as 20+°C ...
(Not that I like snow ... or the cold... I'm perfectly happy with the moderate temperatures )

It's kinda chilly around Rotkreuz right now. I want the sun back.
Not even the Ticinesi got sun, instead they got a shitload of snow.

That would be brown snow then, I gather?

Who's winters are getting colder? It sure isn't ours.

This winter is crazy warm where I am, south Europe, hardly had the heating on at all.
Mind you it can change in a day or two....

Here! A couple of weeks ago, the lows went down to -10F to -15F. We haven't had cold like that in 20+ years.

The BBC, suggesting the sun might be behind climate change?!??!?!
Whatever next, the Guardian!

The Maunder Minimum was an event that happened back between 1645 and 1715.
There have been other minima, but not called Maunder.
(Oort, Wolf, Sporor and Dalton).
We are currently entering A solar minimum, but certainly not the Maunder Minimum.
It could, however, lead to, as you say, a new, second, Little Ice Age, similar to the one that ran between 1550 and 1850, which, co-incidentally, came straight after the Mediaeval Warm Period.
I am one who like to look at data rather than make up a model based on what I want to happen for the purposes of funding, and so I can categorically state that no-one knows for sure what will happen but that it is at the very least possible, and given the data and cyclical nature of these things, probable that the Earth will be entering a cold period. Whether it turns out to be an Ice Age or not is a different matter.
(Although we are actually still IN an ice age).

Colder? One of the main roads through Crawley was well and truly flooded this morning. Some pratt in a taxi drove through the flooded road, which did for his taxi and he sat there in the water causing major congestion for miles around. The police tried to "help" (rolleyes) by placing an accident sign by the lights and slinging a length of "POLICE LINE DO NOT CROSS" tape across two posts to stop other traffic driving through. Naturally, the sign and tape was no obstacle as they simply drove around it compounding the problem that Pratt Tosspot-Dipstick caused in the first place. A 12-15 min commute took 1hr 20min as every road was clogged.
Are those sodding jet streams behind it all, picking up 2/3rd of the Atlantic and dumping it on poor old Blighty?

Bullshit!
The Maunder Maximum is 2 beers and he has never finished the 2nd.

Yeah, I've read your posts, Mick. Apparently our dear host is no real Aussie. Maybe he's been a closet Canadian all his life... They claim to like beer, but they still make that Molson's stuff.

But from the upvotes I suspect at least two people have solved it.
The answer is BURGER KING.

Burger King is not Spam. Spam has too much meat in it be used by Burger King.

I actually do that

And it does make sense. Because "one-way" obviously isn't a concept understandable by everyone
(Besides: Cyclists usually are eligible to use a one-way street in both directions)

but seriously though, I will not put my life into the hands of a complete stranger hoping (s)he knows the one-way street concept.
