Lighten up, lets concentrate on electronics and technology and try to be helpful. As my wise mother used to say "if you can't say something nice, say nothing at all"<p>Best regards to all<p>Tom<hr></blockquote><p>LMAO....<p>Sage advice but I doubt it will be taken to heart. I think he goes by "If you can't say something nice, make sure it's the last word". It is extremely tiresome to try to carry on a rational discussion when some one is injecting that kind of blather.

[Chris Smith]

I speak the truth all the time, sorry if the truth is not nice enough for you? <p>But then, thats why were in deep sh*t in the first place, all those pretend it didn’t happen situations, or worse, the euphemisms. <p>Friendly fire, I thought they had WMDs, and all the other sheep fodder.

[MicroRem]

Just curious Chris, what is the best kind of capitalism?<p>best regards<p>Tom

[Chris Smith]

There is none. <p>A blend of Capitalism and Socialism is the only working model. <p>Same as the Family Unit. <p>It doesn’t allow the rich, to screw the poor. <p>I have seen first hand what we do, especially in Afghanistan prior to the Russian Invasion, and what I saw from our part, our effort, made me ill. <p>Afghanistan women were voting long before American women had that right. But the chimp boasts that we “made it possible for women to vote and run for office? <p>50% of Afghanistan politicians were women [BU] that’s before us, and then we arrived, played political games ,... vying for their attention away from the Russians, and the rest is history.<p>We export chaos to keep poor nation even more poor, so we can “Capitalize” on their resources, and the military is the strong arm that allows it to happen. <p>Viet Nam, Cuba, South America, Central America, Iran, Iraq, Turkey, Egypt, and the list is long and we have done them no favors. Our idea of exporting is black mail, bribery, and force. <p>Democracy is not Assassinating duly elected leaders, like we did in Nam, or like the freak suggested we do in Venezuela.

It's wavelengths - not wave lengths.
It's ultraviolet - not ultra violet.
It's boys - not boyz.
It's you're - not your.
It's offense - not offence.
It's without - not with out.
It's we're - not were.
It's blackmail - not black mail.<p>And I ain't even got no degree in anything!
Very sincerely,

But you have your degree as a Spalling Kween.<p>I Bear-ly passed English, let alone Amer-i-can, and could care less about the nuances of the screwed up English language. Now or back then. <p>I concentrate on the important things like science.<p>According to English,....Photi is a word, can you guess what it is, by the jumbled rules than make up English? <p>Ill give you a hint, it can swim.<p>Or how about inflammable? <p>"IN" means NOT, and flammable means to burn, so it cant burn, right? Wrong.<p>Please educate me as to all of the oxymorons and broken rules of exceptions in the make up of this great language. <p>And its Boyz, as in Boyz from the hood.<p>And you are "in"-correct here also.<p>It is wave lengths.
It is ultra violet.
It is boyz.
It is with out.
It is black mail.<p>And then some one thought it would be nice to hyphenate, join words, or shorten things up to it-all. <p>But these are not absolute rules, they are choices. <p>You chose to write long hand or short.<p>[ September 22, 2005: Message edited by: Chris Smith ]</p>

Chris,<p>I admire your tenacity, and you have on many occasions kindly helped answer questions I have posted regarding electronics projects. <p>If you don't mind I would like to ask you a few questions not related to electronics:<p>Do you believe that the murder of JFK was a conspiracy? Do you believe there was more than one gunman? Was LBJ involved?

[Chris Smith]

Tommy, I don’t know, and Im sure all three are a possibility, either way. <p>As to a conspiracy, it only "takes two".

As to what looks like two gunmen from the film, it also "looks like two". <p>As to LBJ? I don’t have a clue.<p>But when our government squawks the loudest, there is always something smelly in their drawers. <p>They think the shell game works best, look here while I exit the stage. Thank god for hurricane number two, or someone would still be answering questions about dropping the ball at number one, ehh? Nice shell game.

[philba]

oh, so the guvamunt created the new hurricane to deflect criticism from the Katrina response. Hmmm, amazing...

[Chris Smith]

Philba. <p>I can see why learning comes hard for you?<p> With that bout of pseudo logic circumventing all Real logic, Id be struggling with my home work too.

[jollyrgr]

Conspiracies?! Let's play! (I swear Humpty Dumpty was pushed.) I also claim that the helicopters are dark blue; not black. That way the government can deny the existence of "black helicopters" and be totally honest when saying so.<p>Apparently now the "US Government" is using HAARP to steer hurricanes (Katrina) into New Orleans because "The Government" is racist. It's all GWB fault as he caused global warming, which heated the oceans, and thus caused stronger hurricanes.<p>The leeve in New Orleans was blown up to flood the city so that billions of dollars could be pumped (pun intended) into the city and it could be re-developed for those higher on the scale in society. <p>Strangely enough my mom, brother, and I were in New Orleans three weeks to the day before the hurricane struck. We were there less than 24 hours yet we could see the danger of living in that city. Most highways are bridges; and when we got off the highways we could see people living under the highways. But the mayor could not see this. Nor could he find anyone among the 50,000 "trapped" residents to drive out of the city in the school buses. It has to be HAARP steering the hurricanes and global warming!<p>I think sending troops into Iraq and Afghanistan was a huge mistake. Instead the US should have used the Earthquake machine (invented by Tesla) to level these places. Just like when Tesla experimented with it and wiped out a large region of Russia. Yes, the official story is a meteor took out this region. But in reality it was Tesla playing with his earthquake machine. Shake Afghanistan and Iraq to death. Wait for the people to starve and die off, then go take the oil; the real reason for going there in the first place. (As I pay $3.25 a gallon for gas.)<p>The moon? Hell, we've never been there! Just think; they used computers with less than 10k of RAM to control the ships going to the moon. Can you believe that? Not when they did it in less than 10 years the first time (supposedly) with less power than that found in a C64. And now it is going to take 13 years and $105 Billion dollars to go there and we have computers that can map the human gene sequence! <p>As far as JFK.... For years people claimed the casket that he left Texas in was not the one he arrived in Wasthington in. This was denied many times. A few years ago the truth came out. The first casket was too messy and his body was moved to another casket. The first casket was taken out to sea and sank. <p>Well I claim he was never in either casket. He survived the shooting but was brain dead. There's no contengency for that in the line of succession. So what to do? CLAIM he is dead! (I still want to know how someone could lose Kennedy's brain.) Someone once told me what "really" happened was a tragic mistake. Shots were fired but both missed. A secret service agent behind the presidential limo pulled his weapon when he heard the shots; and accidently killed the President when his finger hit the trigger.<p>Oh yes, some others.
* The Pyramids of Egypt were made by Alien space craft.
* Johnny Appleseed planted apples because he liked Apple Pie. (It makes so much more sense when you know the truth.)
* "The Wizard of Oz" and "The Dark Side of the Moon"
* There was no plane at the Pentagon on 911
* AIDS was discovered in 1981. (I have a book that discusses AIDS and it is copyrighted 1969. It does not call it AIDS but describes it fairly well.)
* Crack was invented by the government to get rid of certain racial groups
* Santa Claus
* The Easter Bunny<p>I'm going to go hide from the blue helicopters now.<p>[ September 22, 2005: Message edited by: Jolly Roger ]</p>

According to English,....Photi is a word, can you guess what it is, by the jumbled rules than make up English?
Yep…yep…yep,
Been using that one for years, to initially get students thought processes in order. However I merely refer to the eccentricities of uniformity in pronunciation of the myriads of words encountered within the English language. That is somewhat of a challenge for a person that has other than English as their base language.
I ask how many ways do you think this word could be pronounced …(with 4 being the norm and a select few offering 5 ways.)<p>The word…. is ghoti…..and that desired pronunciation is fish…….what?..... fish???????…that’s right FISH….see…here is its phonetic breakdown:<p>Tough women nation
Tough…….women…….nation….and that pronounces as F I S H.<p>( I find the ph lead in for “f” being less difficult than the harder associative gh combo, therefore, its utilization.)
However, neither of which is anywhere near the wavelength of a green laser pen…<p>

Thank you ED!
You are 100% correct.<p>I love the English language, but I cant take it serious. <p>Its probably why I barely passed it. <p>Ahh but science, now there is a pure and un ambagious thought.

[2M MACHINING]

Aint this just more PHUN than a barrel of monekys.<p>Chris your right,this is the worest goverment there is accept for all the rest.<p>The system is broken because it was never designed to handel this many stupid people.
