Flip flop should be easy too. This one looks rather
like an ECL logic gate:

GND GND
Pull A to ground. Lefthand neon lights. Voltage on right hand neon too low to
maintain discharge and it goes out. Same works for B - RH neon lights and
voltage at the common anode too low to maintain LH neon, which goes out.
Nope! If left is not list then there is no current flow across the
resistor. To ignite the left lamp a voltage (negative maybe 25V) would
have to be applied at A. To extinguish left a voltage of +25(or more)
volts would have to be applied. Generally this kind of logic is pulse
coupled using transformers or capacitors. Note a bistable was done in the
case mentioned with one Neon.
Doing ascii logic from telnet seesion is far to slow for me to give a
complete circuit.
