The author, Ooksseer (http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/U171875) is supposed to be off for lunch, but IMHO this piece is reasonably complete.

Well found Bossel!
As I see it there only needs the one line edited (personal experience in ()!).

Okay, great idea for an article. I checked out the website and I think this could be expanded a little - not a lot, but maybe instead of a paragraph of names of different devices, have a list with descriptions of each device. This will also help to check the spellings - at first I thought psycograph was misspelled, but it's this way on the website.

I think 'psychograph' /is/ correct, they use this spelling elsewhere.
How's that looking?
