this, folks is how the revolution against Gaslighting and Alternate Fact will be fought, and won. Whoever is doing this one out at Badlands NM is a badass. And, ought to be a natonal hero. Just the facts, and these ARE facts. Indisputable facts.

taking personal risks is how revolutions work. Double posts are funny!!
If you're me, it seems I have already said that I have now installed the US-Ukrainian virus that changes almost everything.
It's cool, until you get bored. So many interesting things
Not only that, but scientists are planning their own march on Washington. The more Trump tries to suppress even the ideas and thoughts within the government, the more they're resisting. He is not our king or emperor and this is a democracy. It will be interesting to see how this "resistance" pans out. Hopefully, resistance won't be futile.

This is what separates the U.S. from Russia. It's called the "free expression of ideas" and then resisting the attempted suppression of those ideas by an autocratic or dictatorial leader.

if anyone here needs info on the March for Science, contact me via PM. I will not be dealing with it in great detail in here, at least during this stage. We went from 12-20 people the first night to see me wake up to 730,000 signed up this morning(I came on board Tuesday night)...a period of 48 hours, only 4 days since the last weekend when the idea formed via email thinking out loud. The head organizers are sort of blown away, FB site went down yesterday for 2 hours simply due to overwhelming incoming signups. This looks to be another big one, with a bunch of 'sister march' events nationwide, like the Women's march.
coming in the near future, events I have nothing past second hand info on: A massive Artists Action, and something from the Hispanic community, which might morph into a national strike by Hispanic workers, and those sympathetic to them.

To use some electrical terms…people should be using impedance not resistance.
Kudos to anybody that understands what I mean.

very well played, but doesn't work well in PR releases. I can see a chuckle or two coming from that observation out of the Electrical Engineer that sucked me into working on the March(btw, the Intel guy I've cited in discussion around automation, brilliant scientist).

It has nothing to do with politics.
I really professional in this area, this is one of my specialties. I say again, who it wrote, this is bull★■◆●.

That depends on whether the anti-Trump movement can be considered as an A/C circuit analog, or a D/C one.

No…it means a resistor circuit is just a dumb circuit…”I’m a resistor, and I resist things”
While a inductor circuit can be tuned to apply selective resistance.

Resistors can be variable, like a potentiometer. Resistance can be applied in sufficient amounts when necessary.

True, but they still can't be selective.

I tried to understand where the resistors and microchips. But it's not mine.
I much easier to insure Proton launch than constantly cheat and buy a new Mercedes, cheating insurance companies.
I just got tired of it and I want a quiet country life with cows, chickens, goats and a large dog in the yard.

You can buy yourself a medal and proud of what I do not understand electronics, although I tried.

Revolutions aren't selective or variable. They have one focus and one setting, remove the despot from power, no negotiations and no compromise. However, it's too early to see IF we have an actual despot.....yet. I'm willing to wait and see and let our democracy work.

P.S. By the way, now I'm living with exactly the same girl as Tunnelcat.
It's funny.

sometimes you need a light note..... for me, that was a needed laugh after three hours of sorting out details and hashing out ideas online. My brain was in need of humor.
