    THE ADVENTURES OF MICRO-FARAD AND MILLI-AMP

    One night when his charge was pretty high, Micro-Farad decided to seek
    out a cute coil to let him discharge.

    He picked up Milli-Amp and took her for a ride on his Megacycle.
    They
    rode across the Wheatstone Bridge, around the sine waves, and stopped in
    the magnetic field by a flowing current.

    Micro-Farad, attracted by Milli-Amp's characteristic curves, soon had
    her fully charged and excited her resistance to a minimum. He laid her on
    the ground potential, raised her frequency, and lowered her reluctance.

    He pulled out his high voltage probe and inserted it in her socket,
    connecting them in parallel and began short circuiting her resistance
    shunt. Fully excited, Milli-Amp mumbled, "OHM-OHM-OHM."

    With his tube operating at a maximum and her field vibrating with his
    current flow, it caused her shunt to overheat, and Micro-Farad was rapidly
    discharged and drained off every electron.

    They fluxed all night trying various connections and sockets until his
    magnet had a soft core and lost all of its field strength.

    Afterwards, Milli-Amp tried self-induction and damaged
    her solenoids. With his battery fully discharged, Micro- Farad was unable
    to excite his field, so they spent the rest of the night reversing polarity
    and blowing each other's fuses.

    Being an electronics student I can fully appreciate the subtleties (sp?) of the piece. I must say, I'm ashamed for you daveg. That's so bad it makes me smile. :)

    Nah, read that years ago on a bbs. Haven't seen it in a long time though.
