3.3 Electromagnetic Theory


The Tarmac broadened to become a road with faint traces of a white line down its centre.
They crested a blind rise and the valley below was revealed to harbour a small town picturesque.
“Welcome to Nullenvoid” said Cajones, “I’m gonna have to leave you to your own devices from here on in.”
“What am I supposed to do?” Atom looked at the cat with little wide eyes, “I don’t know anybody down there.”
“mmm” Cajones sat, his tail described an inverted hook, “You’ll be fine, or maybe not. It’s time for your Induction.”
“Induction? You mean like using rotating magnetic fields to transfer electricity from one place to another?[3]
“?”
Atom shrugged, “I dunno where this stuff comes from”
Cajones thought for a while “It may be closer to the truth than you know”
“Whatchu mean?”
“This is where they attempt to transfer their shit into you”

[3]Editor’s Note: We can only surmise that Atom has dredged up some rudimentary memory of basic electrical theory; presumably Faraday’s Law which explains not only how electrical motors and generators work but also how the battery in your electric toothbrush is charged.

Obey and find that nirvana in the swamp of blood and lust.

Just read an Oscar Wilde quote that fits this perfectly,
"The first duty in life is to be as artificial as possible."

In the misfit of civilization to the natural state of existence, obedience to such duty is the only form of harmony, lest one cause disruption with original thought or intuitive action.

James: 'The Swamp of Blood & Lust' sounds like a fun place to spend Hogmannay :D

Yodood: Oscar knew the score.

Just a quick stop... letting you know one of my completely arbitrary and unenforceable New Year's Resolutions is to catch up with Cajones and finish Markov Chain.

I'll be back in a day or two.

And, er... the word verification is "doushne." Hmm...

Garth said...

Jeff: I'm hoping for revolutions this year

I don't have an electric toothbrush. And the Earth revolves daily. ;)

I'll quit using that ";)" emoticon now.
