Use different size wire in electro clutch?

I'll bet folks in the industry were calling out wire by American Wire Gauge calls long before folks 'over there' were calling wires out in direct cross sectional area numerics. We hade/have circular mils, and you guys have square millimeters.

Eventually, the world will, perhaps, be all metric. Maybe one day there will be a singular monetary system or government... sure.

Don't hold your breath.

For now we will all, both you (Eeyore's 'over there' crowd)and us, savor the nostalgia that our truly scientific ancestors gave us. We will cling to those things that we think important. Every 'scientist' knows how to measure length regardless of what ticks are on the scale... still, every man likes to do so with *his own* ruler.

All the automation and such in 'science and industry' these days has made for some 'scientists' that are titled or held in regards that are far beyond their actual level of competency or depth of knowledge.

I am glad that you are not in that boat, John.

The classical engineers are all but gone... a dying breed.

Absurd? YOU, maybe.

I find that folks that claim to be a scientist yet cannot perform math in bases other than ten and two, are not really scientists at all. That is how absurd you are.

Do you piss and moan about the number of hours in a day or the calendar arrangement as well?

You: NOT a scientist.

More toward "whining wussy", or in your case "wussy in the body of an ass".

Millimeter is "mm", NOT "mil". "mil" IS known around the world, you asshole, know nothing idiot.

metacarpals?

Probably more like 140 cm for him. Conservative guess. :-)

Yeah. Hail Marry!

Oops Hail Mary!

I just have to say that I did like that response.

I am glad we all did not embrace the toad licking thing back in the

We'd all be singing "On the Toad Again..." And PETA would be on our asses.

Let's see if your 'enhancement' gets the depth of that off the wall remark... :-)

Bwuahahahahaha... Intellectually Enhanced... indeed!

On the Toad again...

No, the answer to "Life, the Universe and Everything" is 42.

If that doesn't make sense to you, it's because you don't understand the question. The question is "What is six times nine?"

The only way any of this works out is if '42' is in base 13. (4*13+2=6*9)

And as the sun sinks slowly into the west, we bid a fond farewell to the great engineers of the past. It was a dark and stormy night, ......

I know some pretty amazing ones, so the breed is far from dead.

--- No, the distal phalanges of my fingers and toes, plus one other appendage. ;)

Interestingly, Indians from India count on their fingers using all of their phalanges in sequence, like this:

Proximal Phalange Intermediate Phalange Distal Phalange

--------------------------------+-----------------------+-------------- Little Finger 1 2 3 Ring Finger 4 5 6 Middle Finger 7 8 9 Index Finger 10 11 12

So, by using both hands, they can count up to 144 on their fingers.

I'd bet all hold degrees that are more than ten years old, and come from educational paradigms that are a far cry from what takes place in today's classrooms.

Kids these days are lucky. What should really happen is that they all get forced to use a slide rule for the entire first year of secondary school. Get a feel for the numbers, as it were.
