Villy Boor Boorelec Durban I am sorry but I had an ulterior motive for continuing this discussion. I wished to find out what the knowledge base was in the TV repair industry in the USA. Few people seemed to be aware of just how little it takes to kill, a few hundred milli amps flowing across your heart for a few minutes will give you your wings. The voltage is really irrelevant. Ohms law. Knowlege of that was low, marked exceptions yes but on average the knowlege base is limited. The understanding of generation and distrobution was again limited, I think a number would be pushing against the wind to get their papers here. -- On Sun, 22 Dec 2002 05:53:11 Pete wrote: > > > >This discussion was of a great interest to us, >We have learned a lot about the most important part of our lives. >Without power, we never could have the chance to meet one to each other >here, Think for a moment, that no to long back, people lived without >this marble source, and they have to use kerosene to light up their >houses and the street towns at night.
