The electrons in an AC circuit are like a Chinese or Italian fire drill
compared the electrons in a DC circuit. They keep rushing back and
forth from one end to the other and generating a lot of extra heat.

DC circuits are like German fire drills. All the electrons are moving
in an orderly flow from one end to other so you can have about two or
three times as many participants.

Yep, that's it. That's my story and I'm sticking to it...

And your switches work by pressing hard on the wire until no electron can
pass anymore, right?
