I just wonder if we have a musical talent out there who might set this word to melody - perhaps in the "lieder" style with a strong flavour of maybe Schubert and envisioning a Dietrich Fischer-Dieska
Bad news is often a different spin! I wish to hell this organisation ( in which I own stock) would get its corporate act together. In a recent article written up in a prestigious professional journal
Welcome to Battery University Hi all, This is prompted by the question from Uwe regarding his lead acid batteries. This site (with which I have no connection) is obviously run as part of a PR initiat
Just a thought - a possible source of suitable "plastic" rod is a store which sells knitting needles or (if you are really brave and like to live dangerously) the wife's knitting basket! Incidentally
I wonder if perhaps it should be a "golden rule" when using rod type formers that whatever insulating material is involved the structure should be a tube rather than a rod. For most practical purpose
Sounds good Chris. The other tip I should have included is putting small samples of such plastics material (together with half a cup of water) in the microwave oven for a short while as a guide to de
I must confess that after all these years i do find that my calculator with all the built-in formulae (ohms law included) has made me lazy but maybe the skill is in knowing what to calculate and when

Who is the sad soul who believes that the rules are made by our "elected representatives". They only vote on legislation generated by "sybil serpents" who are often working from briefs originating fr
The people enforcing the rules are the very same "sybil serpents" who are employed to shuffle .........................etc. Somebody has to give them employment and if they wern't doing that we would
EErrrrrmmmmm! It would help those of us who engage in debate if others who reply do so in a way that does not result in a distortion of the point being made by the insertion of comments within the bo
Alan, I have not tried it yet but I wonder if a search of the Met Office sites might not produce some useful info on barometric effects/history/stats. If there is a chance that they are already gathe
Even Worse Mike ! A habit of mine is to park a pencil or similar behind an ear ! I can remember an occasion when I absent-mindedly attempted to do the same with a small soldering iron. This painful l
