Use different size wire in electro clutch?

And as the sun sinks slowly into the west, we bid a fond farewell to the
great engineers of the past. It was a dark and stormy night, ......

I know some pretty amazing ones, so the breed is far from dead.

I'd bet all hold degrees that are more than ten years old, and come
from educational paradigms that are a far cry from what takes place in
today's classrooms.

Kids these days are lucky. What should really happen is that they all
get forced to use a slide rule for the entire first year of secondary
school. Get a feel for the numbers, as it were.

No, the distal phalanges of my fingers and toes, plus one other
appendage. ;)

Interestingly, Indians from India count on their fingers using all of
their phalanges in sequence, like this:

Proximal Phalange Intermediate Phalange Distal Phalange
--------------------------------+-----------------------+--------------
Little Finger 1 2 3
Ring Finger 4 5 6
Middle Finger 7 8 9
Index Finger 10 11 12

So, by using both hands, they can count up to 144 on their fingers.

I only get 38, and that included using the metacarpals. 19 each hand.

The USA is 'supposed' to be metricated. hy you choose to be so backward never
fails to amaze me. Any given wire gauge covers a wide range of
cross-sectional areas. At least you know what you're getting with mm2.

Oh that is quite straightforward, the powers that be are aware that the clarity
of metric units assists in thinking straight; and they don't want the proles to
do that.

I will try to remove the bad taste with a swig of
Coffee/rooibos..............
Nah, that failed.

About the only thing that will cleanse something like that is RFNA. Rinse with
minute amounts of ADMH (small amounts because it is rather toxic, plus itreacts
violently with even trace amounts of RFNA).

And this lowly american can count to over 1000 using the digits of my hands.

What an absurd comment. Do you have 12 fingers so you can count in inches to the
foot ?

Maybe some folks in the Appalachians, or the bayous ;-)

Of course you knew.

Oh yeah, well I can count to roughly 1e16.*

*However, counting by ones, I get stuck... 125, 126, 127, 127, 127...

And a lot are antisocial.

It does appear that socialism and antisocial behavior go together. Look at
the behavior of left-wing demonstrators.
