No, but I am currently in the process of collecting datasheets on tubes and
am running into some really amazing stuff so far. A somewhat earlier version
of what I've got is at http://yourpage.blazenet.net/rtellason/tubes.html if
anyone wants to take a look. I'm currently adding a *lot* more stuff to that
page, but it'll be a bit yet before I get around to uploading the new
version.

I don't
believe that anyone's mentioned mercury arc rectifiers yet as one
application of mercury (and of course fascinating to watch!). (Did any
early
Nobody's mentioned thyratrons (gas-filled triodes/tetrodes) either. I
suspect the thyratrons used in ring counters, etc, were always inert gas
(and not mercury vapour) ones, does anyone know for sure?
