Did you ever wonder why the heater fan in your car
operates from
low-
medium-high, while a typical box window fan operates from
High-medium-
low?
I was just thinking about that.
hmm....
Oh yeah, I never figured out how 8 "bits" could equal $1.00
either...
We will all try to put your mind at ease:
With the fans, the car is a DC motor and the window is AC.
Starting
torque is different.
As for the bits ..... isn't 2 "bits" a quarter?
But you can take a window fan and set it on "low" , plug
it in, and it
starts up jjust fine, though...
True, but it's not particularly good for the motor.
Ideally, it should
start up on "high" to give max torque using all the
windings of the
motor.
Then, it can be turned down. Not a big deal though ... most
fans can
handle it. I forget the mechanical stuff, but it takes
something like
3
times the amount of power to get something in motion than
it does to
maintain that motion.
Newton's Laws of Motion: force is redundant and subordinate
to the
conservation of momentum.
Ipso facto, quid pro quo, illegitimi non carborundum. Carpe
Diem. :)
Burma Shave....
ROTFL!!!!
Damn - why am I feeling particularly briliant this morning?
Must be the coffee.... :)
Could it be that you were recently anointed temporary Lord of
the Realm?
Well, first of all, I am not Lord of The Realm - I am a mere
Knight of
The Realm.
Secondly, Rule #1 on the Evil Overlord Instruction and Maintenance
Manual clearly states "Always make the victim of your world
domination
scheme think that it was his or her idea."

Yeah, too bad you are not clever enough to respond without getting
binned..
Harry has taken some beautiful photos of drain plugs. You really
should go
look at them. The comments about his granddaughter's photo (or
whoever,
whatever, whenever, if he took it, quibbling ****...) must have
made an
impact. He's given thought to the proper use of lighting and
backgrounds.
He's even using depth of field in imaginative ways.
Last time I looked over at Chuck's, there wasn't much going on. WAFA
and DR. Hurtdick were keeping very quiet. I don't think Donny has
even figured out how to log on to the site. I think Chuck has
finally figured out how to keep the stooges from mucking up the
place. Glad you had a good time on vacation. take care John.

Log on to this...... mucking boy!

I posted a copy of photos of drain plugs over there, without comment.
Just drain plugs. Naturally, several of The Seven Little Schitts added
their usual sorts of comments, and the Substitute Moderator locked the
thread. The Little Schitts can't behave, no matter what.

Other than that, the only post of interest over there in weeks had to
do with some nicely turned out model boats.

I think Chuck simply lost interest in his creation.

Leonard locked the thread? Good for him. Your trolls are getting nipped
in the bud now. You'll soon tire of dropping the bait over at Chuck's
and coming up empty. D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S

Maybe people are - boating? WAFA spends more time bitching than he does
*looking* at a boat.
