WAR IS HELL

 James Dickey, who wrote Deliverance, was also a poet. I sat on the front row in an auditorium while he read a poem about a US soldier in a Japanese prisoner of war camp. There was an attempt of escape and as was their custom when that happened, ten prisoners were chosen at random to be beheaded. The soldier in question had been a gymnist in his past life and when it was his time to die he jumped up and began to do flips and handstands and such. He was so good the Japanese captors cheered him on and clapped. When he tired, they cut off his head.
I have several more stories about James Dickey that I will tell you in upcoming posts.

It was an ugly time, folks.
Hugh Thomson... the soldier who during the Vietnam War had landed a helicopter in the line of fire to confront and stop American troops who had by that point killed close to 500 unarmed civilians in the My Lai Massacre, was labeled a traitor by Congress and ordered not to speak about the event.

The same street, 71 years ago.

Damn nazis. Those came in peace!

 So apparently you can create power by running an electric motor backwards?

Leon Czolgosz, assassin of William McKinley, the 25th President of the United States, was electrocuted for his crime on October 29, 1901, at Auburn Prison in Auburn, New York. Among the personal effects found in his cell was a U.S. quarter stamped with the date 2218. The face in profile on said quarter was not George Washington, but rather a face which has yet to be identified.

A study done by the University of Arizona found an average of 421,000 different bacteria on shoes. Coliforms, a bacterial indicator of the level of sanitation of foods and water (and universally present in feces), were detected on the bottoms of 96% of shoes. In addition, E. coli was detected on 27% of the shoes, along with seven other kinds of bacteria, including Klebsiella pneumoniae, which can cause urinary tract infection, and Serratia ficaria, which can cause respiratory infections.

Regarding your comment on the bicycle generator.... There is actually little difference between a motor and a generator. In fact, a lot of high powered motors are 3-phase (your home is 1-phase) electricity. It is common for small shops to connect a 1-phase motor to a 3-phase motor, so running the 1-phase motor off household current spins the 3-phase motor, thereby generating 3-phase electricity and avoiding the very high cost of connecting to 3-phase power off the pole.

That should read magnesium and steel for creating sparks.
