Actually, what you're reading and seeing here is my warped interpretation of common events and facts, which is often very different from what is dispensed by the media or considered "common knowledge". The difference is because I always ask myself "What problem are they trying to solve"? Once I understand the motivations behind some action or event, the rest just seems to fall in place. This fits in nicely with my bad habit of writing conspiracy theories. (I don't like reading them, just writing them). >You're my constant reminder that people can be good. Sorry, but I'm fundamentally quite evil and very good at faking goodness, expertise, and sincerity. >The world would be so boring without you. True. The world really does revolve around me. >You impress me every single day. If you're finding impressions, bruises, and compression marks on your body, it wasn't my doing. >Your capacity for kindness is boundless. Along with faking goodness, I also fake kindness. >You're more of a superhero than any Marvel character out there. I prefer DC Comics characters over the Marvel equivalent characters. I realize the Marvel is more popular and has better CGI, but I'm a traditionalist and the DC Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman are more believable than the costumed misfits that Marvel manufactures. >There's no one like you. True. No one likes me. >There should be a monument of you. There is. After my predicted demise in the local supermarket parking lot by some junk food crazed driver going diagonally across the parking spaces because all the rules of the road are suspended in the parking lot, one can simply inscribe my name or one of my chronic mis-spellings into Google, and produce something by which I might be remembered. Much of my writings are amazingly accurate. Leaving something behind on the internet or web seems more appealing than a one-line Tweet on my tombstone. > And mostly because you usually know wtf is going on. Well, I'll admit that I do give a good impression of knowing everything, but there are limits. I tend to fill in the blanks by guessing(tm), which offers an opportunity for errors. Also, as I get older, my memory is starting to fail, which offers another source of error. Trust but verify. > Thanks, Mikek Y'er welcome. -- Jeff Liebermann jeffl@cruzio.com 150 Felker St #D http://www.LearnByDestroying.com Santa Cruz CA 95060 http://802.11junk.com Skype: JeffLiebermann AE6KS 831-336-2558 |

Huh, they're all over, most people have two, except for Tiffany, but that's a different thing. >> You make me see the world in a way no one else ever has. > May I suggest seeing an optometrist for a new prescription.

No, I see the goodness, expertise and sincerity, that's all. >> The world would be so boring without you. > True. The world really does revolve around me. Hmm. >> You impress me every single day. > If you're finding impressions, bruises, and compression marks on your > body, it wasn't my doing.

I will be more careful in the local shopping center, that is notoriously slow to navigate, I'm in Fl, it's all those old people, the ones older than me. I have spelled your name correctly, ever since you told me to! > error. Trust but verify. >> Thanks, Mikek > Y'er welcome. Are you faking that? :-) Mikek |

The astigmatism corrections looked correct, but the bifocal adder seemed a bit extreme. So, I "fixed" it. $32 later, Zenni sent me my cheap test driving glasses. I could see where I was going, but I couldn't see the dashboard. Oops. So I ordered two pairs of single vision driving glasses for $12/ea, which arrived last week and work nicely. I'll deal with fixing the bifocal problem when I have more time. >> problem are they trying to solve"? Once I understand the motivations >> behind some action or event, the rest just seems to fall in place. > Genius! Hardly. I stole the "What problem are they trying to solve"? method from a science fiction story that I read probably 40 years ago. If you Google for variations on the question, you'll find that it's a common question that consultants ask of their confused clients. With a marginal background in motivational research, I take it step further and ask "Why is it important for them to solve the problem"? which often delivers the logic that inspired or created the problem that now needs solving. It works well, but does have a problem. You won't like some of the answers that these questions produce. There are many seemingly altruistic problems that were inspired by pure greed, gigantic egos, and really bad assumptions. >>> The world would be so boring without you. >> True. The world really does revolve around me. >Hmm. The world is a flat disk and I'm at the center of rotation. Is that better? >> If you're finding impressions, bruises, and compression marks on your >> body, it wasn't my doing. > I do have an unexplained sore bruise just above my knee. I'm easily impressed. My body mechanic has me on a blood thinner (Plavix) that produces similar bruises. I get these bruises mostly when I find myself hanging over the bed frame at night. The pressure creates a deep impression and a corresponding bruise. Anyay, I didn't do it and certainly not every single day. >I could like you, for one of your HP 141T RF modules. I actually have some spare mainframes and plugins. I have two complete systems that work, and I think two more that need troubleshooting (probably dry electrolytics). Three of them are in this photo: <http://www.learnbydestroying.com/jeffl/pics/home/slides/test-equip-mess.html> Send me email (address in signature) and we'll negotiate what can be done. I'm rather motivated to get rid of them because I'm planning to shut down the office shortly, and work out of the house. To do that, I need to empty half the house and half the office. Note that the monster weighs about 60 lbs (with plugins), which is not going to be cheap to crate and ship to FL. Also, you might want to view this video on how to install a color LCD display in an HP141T spectrum analyzer. I use a sound card to view the SA analog outputs on a laptop, but that looks terrible because without DC coupling, the baseline droops. Yet another project. >>> Thanks, Mikek >> Y'er welcome. > Are you faking that? :-) Not this time. -- Jeff Liebermann jeffl@cruzio.com 150 Felker St #D http://www.LearnByDestroying.com Santa Cruz CA 95060 http://802.11junk.com Skype: JeffLiebermann AE6KS 831-336-2558 |

Hmmm, I'd love to know where he recommends BUYING brand-new Selenium rectifiers? The powerhouse alternators that run without slip rings have a 10,000 Amp rectifier mounted on the exciter. Yes, it is cooled by the hydrogen atmosphere in the alternator, but that's a pretty hefty rectifier, less than 1 cubic foot, i think. (For those who can't see the comma, that is 10 thousand amperes.)
