Does the bff glow in the dark?

You're right. I only realized how good the appliances were when I house sat for a month. All she said to the salesperson was "I just want quality. I don't ever want to buy it again." Good sales staff know their products, know about return data/model and respect warranty issues.

AHA! I recently replaced my old dryer with one that shuts off when it considers the clothes dry enough. It also has an 'off' switch and an interior light. It is so efficient that I don't even think about it as being a power hog.

Smegging garbage pod!

And then there is NetSuite http://www.itwire.com/it-indus...

+1 for using the correct spelling of arse.

You are so wrong that I reckon you're a troll.

I think the focus should be identifying the gimp that invented "digital native" or called for it to be invented. That's where age discrimination began.

720K floppies? Ha! I had to work with 360K ones. Now try and tell the young kids that and they won't believe you.

I agree. Some advanced high school physics can explain more.
There is a 3rd option here. That is of force vectors. e.g. repulsion between a number of fixed coils @ 45 degrees to each other in the shape of a cone, causes a magnetic field. The simple vector calculation would show that the field is pushed outward, away from the coils like the shape of a rocket exhaust.
What if you replace the coils with a cone* of electrons? As the repulsive force between parallel streams of electrons is enormous yet shaped as a cone, the repulsive force pushes the electrons away from the center of the cone, outside the cone itself. Again, it is easy to visualize the vectors here. A CRT only uses a single stream of electrons. Add another stream and the resultant force between them will push them away from each other. Nothing remarkable here.
But what if you contain the electrons with an external magnetic field, pushing the repulsive force back toward the center?
You will have force acting on nothing. No law was broken. The electrons are contained, moving from the apex of the cone to its base. The repulsive force is directed out of the base. There are no particles emitted, just force.

There's no magic in this. If you think about it, this force vector engine can have quite a few applications.

*The cone is actually a funnel within a funnel, sealed at the apex and base. The electron streams are in a vacuum between the walls of the funnels, moving from apex to base.

Surely not 3 first posts in a day?

You mean Woosh?

Freaky

I would go with Ginger, but I'd be thinking of Mary Ann.....

Yeah. What was secret a decade ago is now available with careful searching, like FBI HD scanners etc. If any backdoor is distributed, it'll be available to anyone real soon now.
