Abd, you initially stated: "The set of videos is too long for me to watch now..." But later at the end of that same post you state: "Okay, I kept watching." Fortunately for me I did read that entire post, (not the previous MUCH LONGER ONE!) and I generally concurred with your concern that the battery versus capacitor explanation is inadequate. Nevertheless, you state at the very beginning that you didn't have enough time to watch the show in its entirety. Let me reiterate: It is in fact the first thing you tell your readers. While, in a sense, you are taking advantage of literary license (something I'm guilty of having done as well) I still think you share some of the blame for misleading some of your readers. > Ah, I've been involved in on-line "debate" > since about 1986 or so, with the W.E.L.L.

This is a fun topic, regardless of what side of the fence one is leaning towards. Regards Steven Vincent Johnson www.OrionWorks.com www.zazzle.com/orionworks
