Yeah, there's no place for either consciousness or Free Will in current physics. That's the key: CONTEMPORARY physics. If current science is just about...
Dear friends, Terry (Jade) and Pat (Amethyst) here with a short note about some wonderful personal news. We have a new wild website: http://www.holytode.com...
I should have sent that at 1:59 this morning. Or at 15:92... nope, that doesn't work.  Steve Greenfield Electronic Engineering Technician AT Electronic...

Happy pi day, everyone! 3/14 Steve Greenfield Electronic Engineering Technician AT Electronic Technician 20+ years CET Computers and Consumer Electronics ...
In high school physics class I was taught that it was because water is a very Special Polar molecule. Water has all kinds of unusual properties. The solid...
I don't think it is because it is polar, I think it is because it is neutral. After all, you can put a charge on a soap bubble and then repel it. It isn't as...
I like the static electricity demo where tap water stream is bent by a Plus or minus charged rod. Water is a polar molecule and can be delflected by static...
With quantum mechanics, it appears that things are happening in a sudden random manner. I think Einstein is right to be uneasy about this. Perhaps there are a...
I've been asked to do a Mr Science thing for a group from 2 to 6 years old, mainly 3 year olds. My little VDG is a bit scary, but something like the wand could...
"Spooky action at a distance" is one of my favorite quotes from Einstein when discussing quantum entanglement. It does make me feel a little better to know...
Some great project ideas to do with the kids this spring! A little safer than the Tesla coil I was thinking about building this year. I like the Van De Graaf...
Quantum Mechanics. Einstein had a problem with quantum mechanics. He couldn't believe that a radioactive half life was a random function. Albert was very...
Because of the way the mosfets in those are made, solid-state relays that have a NC connection always have high resistance (compared to their NO counterparts)....
It does, and it doesn't. Steve Greenfield Electronic Engineering Technician AT Electronic Technician 20+ years CET Computers and Consumer Electronics ...
If this guy actually knew how we thought, by which I mean he could reproduce the thinking process artificially, I would find it pretty interesting. If only an...
It is interesting but it is the Social Science equivalent of proving 1 = 0. Sure you could assume that everything at some point is defined by previous...
I've not finished reading this yet, but I've been finding it very interesting. http://www.physorg.com/news186830615.html Steve Greenfield Electronic...
Good point on the shield. I worked in a factory where somebody shorted out a 440 line and the fuse box literally exploded. That was 10 amp fuses if I remember...
You could use a digital counter such as a 4017 with simple diode logic to turn the FETs on; May want to use Logic gated FETs, hmmm and for the upper FET you...
... Since you're not volunteering any info on what this does, I won't ask. Not unusual in the Mad Science field, been there many times myself. But the quality...
... I shouldn't even discuss the battery as I have learned from a dozen forums today (all I have got so far is rudeness and no help), but since the image won't...
Couldn't see the diagram. A few questions, if you cannot get the diagram to where we can see it; What sort of current and voltage does the load need? Is it a...
I have a video and it also shows a possible low tech alternative to Scheffler solar kitchens The alternative uses 2 parabolic dishes on the same mount and I...
