Nay! that dug trenches in the dirt roads and reduced mileage to 2km.ltr. Side benefit though!. The radio antenna gathered static and charged the 2 layers like a capacitor...kids never touched the windows again, sat like angels, hands on laps, spikey hair did look funny. No grimey kid prints on the windows I was the envy of other bus drivers. Still can't listen to the radio.
i can relate to antenna static and charges. years back, 1965, i work as a ship's navigator doing off shore shallow water oil survey in Gulf of Mexico. late one evening when we were returning to crew quarters boat, for some reason or other, i decided to climb up on top of bridge. along side of ladder was cable for antenna. while climbing up, i kept getting a stinging on my ear, so i swatted at what i thought were mosquitos. after looking around horizon, i looked up into sky to observe the many stars. that is when i notice "St. Elmo's fire" off end of antenna. i move over to antenna wire, looked closely and saw a faint but clearly visible blue static around wire. when i descended ladder, staying well clear of antenna wire, i looked down at water and caught glimpses of some fishes with their bio luminescence. another great sight. truly an experience of 3 of the many wonders of nature. -- peace out. in a world with out fences, who needs gates. sl6.3 linux tc.hago. g . -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
