I was just thinking about that.

hmm....

Oh yeah, I never figured out how 8 "bits" could equal $1.00 either...

Believe it or not, it's related to the Spanish dollar or real. Back
during the Spanish exploration of Mexico during the silver mining
phase, silver was minted into coins - eight coins (or pieces of eight)
to the Spanish dollar or real. Bit substituted for piece - just 8
bits to the dollar.

This carried over to the American colonial days when Spanish dollars
were considered more valuable and Colonial dollars. How it came to
the lexicon of America was pretty simple - American/Spanish dollars
were divided into "quarters" or two bits.

Thus the rhyme - two bits, fours bits, eight bits, a dollar.

Two bits equals .25¢.

Two bits, four bits, SIX bits, a dollar...

All for the Gremlins,

Stand up and holler!

Yay!! Yippee!!

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.

conservation of momentum.

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.

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.

Too bad... the original idea was great.. a real boating site without the
crap that goes on here.
The real problem is that the Dwarfs & their associates far outnumber real
boaters.
What can be done about it........?? Sometimes you have to exercise
termination with extreme prejudice.

Have you always lived in a dream world? You, Rev.Jim and Harry spend
less time boating and more time in rec.boats than anyone else in here.
You purchased a boat from Tom, and it took you over a year to actually
use it.

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

I do think it is funny that Harry keeps posting photos talking about
"away we go, right down the ..... " and then posting different photos of
drain plugs and drains, in a not so subtle statement that Chuck's board
is going down the drain. People made light humor of the photo, and did
not take the bait to get into an argument, and Harry thought it was
everyone else fault that the thread was locked.

I really think Harry would make a great case study for a Dr. Dr.'s
thesis.

Deep into trivial thought....

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.

Are you saying that he *wasn't* showing off his newfound photography

Now I'm embarrassed.
