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.

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.
