You might like to contribute to the above article, where there is a certain amount of crackpottery concerning EM waves.] (]) 18:21, 21 August 2008 (UTC) | |||
: Crackpottery abounds. I'll look, but my patience wears thin. Had to break someone of the notion that radio waves travel by conduction, for example. --] (]) | |||

I've moved the editcounter here; you accidentally created it in the mainspace. ]] 16:39, 27 August 2008 (UTC) | |||
:No problem :). In future just have User:Wtshymanski/SUBNAMEGOESHERE. The only difference would be if you were including a subpage into your userpage, in which case it would just be /SUBNAMEGOESHERE. ]] 17:01, 27 August 2008 (UTC) | |||

] Hey, mate. I just wanted to make a gesture of peace regarding our ] disagreement. The image you added is probably the best one for that section and should replace the image of the non-functioning mill that is there now. →] (]) 19:04, 17 September 2008 (UTC) | |||
== RS-232 == | |||
I have again reverted your edits to the RS-232 article. If you have concerns please discuss them on the talk page as I have already requested. Your most recent edit reintroduced unsourced material that is directly contradicted by a citation and has no place in the article. Additionally, piping a link from 8250 to 16550 is an inappropriate link - Easter eggs links are contrary to the manual of style. Happy to discuss, but please, on the talk page. ] (]) 19:53, 2 October 2008 (UTC) | |||
==voltage== | |||
please quit removing my edit about high voltage, it's quite obvious that your idea of high voltage is conflated with the idea of high wattage and high current. | |||
think of voltage as how fast water is flowing through a pipe and current as how much water is flowing through a pipe. water flying at a few hundred times the speed of sound is hardly hazardous if there are only few molecules of them -- and the same thing can be said of voltage. | |||
surviving a high voltage shock is trivial if the current is low. i am not advertising for taser. i'm dispelling the myth that high voltage somehow equals to danger -- because it's not. as i wrote, everyone who lives in dry areas shock themselves with a few thousand volt of electricity every few seconds just by walking. that's the same voltage as a taser after initial discharge --if not more --and most don't even feel them. | |||
the same thing can be said of CRT. CRT monitors & TV are basically small particle accelerators that shoots electrons out at up to a few hundred thousand volts, put your hand in front of a TV screen and you'll be shocked with a few hundred thousand volts of electricity. and it does nothing other than move the hair on your arm. | |||
and on the flip side, back in ww2, U boat seamen often get electrocuted by submarine batteries running at 6 volts. | |||
if you dont like my reference to taser, feel free to remove that and add something else that's in the 50k-100k volt range. but dont remove every piece of information i put in. cos it's lame and it only feed the ignorance. | |||
also, 23 people dead in a matter of years in an entire country is absolutely within the envelope of acceptable risk. there are hundreds if not thousands of every day activities that we consider safe that kills more people than taser-- either by death rate or by absolute numbers. did you know a few hundred people die each year from caffeine induced heart failure after drinking too much coke or coffee? |
