Testing Mosfets in Parallel

what was the test? dna exchange?

cheers terry

Hee.. Mind your virtual reality!! -)-)-)

In your dreams.

I meant a handshake, you grubby sod :)

Probably face-to-face contact, much over-rated in this Internet age. For example, John has seen my book and has sent me goodies to enjoy, does he imagine I might not actually exist? That's silly. Perhaps I'm the ultimate Turing machine? Not only answering questions, but starting threads and provoking human thought, all from a computer? Ahem, I mean a computer program? Just a little intentional mistake there, meant to throw machine-human-impersonator seekers off track.

I was going to say exchange of photons, but it occurs to me that I have probably exchanged photons with at perhaps a billion people so far. It would be an interesting calculation.

What? No Win Hill? 8-/

????? Rich

"Intentional Mistake"? Now, there's one for Norman to coordinate! ;-P

Cheers! Rich

Don't forget the Aether - we all have that in common. ;-)

Cheers! Rich

How do I know you're not Robert Redford, or Barbara Streisand, writing electronics books under an assumed name?

John

Thanks to all for the all the great test ideas.

The saddest part of this story(other than my truly bad arithmetic skills) is that the rep for the company who makes this part is unable to locate the FAE for their mosfets.

Later, Ed V.

Maybe he's heard what you're doing with them.......

Of course intentional mistake. Not being a real person, but a computer program masquerading as a real person, I have to make mistakes, just as a real person would do. But, as a computer program that never makes mistakes, this is clearly an intentional apparent mistake, intended to make me, the Turing machine computer program, look like a person. And how to explain this revelation of the subterfuge? That's another thing only a human would do, so of course as a superior Turing machine program I have to do that as well. :-)

See below: "Identity and Deception in the Virtual Community". Maybe you're an experiment that escaped from the MIT Media Lab, and the real Win Hill is collaborating.

After all, spread-spectrum was invented by (among others) Hedy Lamarr!

I deny that I exist.

Human-to-human bandwidth can be *way* faster than USENET, depending on the humans. Face-to-face is under-rated, methinks.

Besides, even though I personally deny existing, how do *we* know you and Jim Thompson aren't really the same guy? ;-)

James Arthur (Too bad I missed meeting Rich at the aerospace thing.)

I've talked to Jim, and met Win once at one of the MIT yard sales - although I doubt he remembers, we were both buying books, and ended up talking about flywheels. I bought a pair of 7904's and carried them back to Worcester Square. Ye gods my arms hurt the next day.

Cheers Terry

Flywheels? Sorry I don't remember.

Hmm, did you mention boat anchors? :-)
