FCC fines retailers over TV labeling

""The truth will set you free" Hey Smokey, how 'bout participating in my Iron Man... thread? I might just go see it tomorrow night. I think it's getting pretty good reviews.

Saw that thread and reason I didn’t participate was that haven’t seen previews or the movie, so really didn’t know what to say. If you see it, please give us a review in FF

If you ground the negative terminal all the telephony wires end up positive with respect to Earth ground, so if the negative battery terminal was grounded the wires slowly dissolved. For modern telephony the positive battery terminal is the one that's grounded, leaving the wires with a net negative charge.

To understand what's going on, loop up electroplating. Atoms (Ions actually) are leached from the positive electrode and deposited on the negative electrode. In this case when the battery negative terminal was grounded, copper was removed from the wires and distributed into the dirt surrounding the cable and when the battery positive terminal was grounded, atoms moved from the dirt to the wires.

Learn something new everyday. Thanks for info.

Like I said, I EVEN HAVE TROUBLE getting people to beleive that current flows from negative to positive (which is the case)

Current flows from positive to negative, electrons flow from negative to positive.

Actually no one cares.

current IS electrons, voltage the "pressure" in a water pipe.
I saw a cartoon in todays paper, people were walking into the "cemetary of last words",
on one tombstone it said "wheres the ripcord?".
On another it said "AC or DC , whats it matter"?
So some should care
