Hi,

I'm thinking about building a ceiling light out of wood. It will weigh
about 10lb. Just wondering - is there any way the conductor could also
carry the mass?

Thanks!

Somewhere I have a whole bunch of electic wire that seems to be made
of steel and not copper. It's stranded but doesn't bend easily. The
insulation is black and it's not rubber or vinyl. It looks a little
like black cloth covered in something waterproof. Did I mention that
I got it in 1967? It would hold 20 pounds I'm sure.

It was two pieces intertwined like a hair braid (except with only 2
"ropes", hair won't stay braided), so maybe it wouldnt' be pretty
enough. But the point is it worked well for electricity but either
it had steel in it or something that made it stronger than copper.
Even one strand out of 10 or 20 from the stranded wire was hard to
bend.

I made two long extension cords with it, well long from my perspective
in 1968, when the longest I had seen was probably 15 feet. These were
30 or 50 feet, and one of them I used to run the 1 amp battery charger
on my '50 Olds with a 6 volt battery. I ran the cord from the frat
house pantry to the No Parking except Members sign in back and left it
there for at least 3 months, in rain and under the snow, and never
blew a fuse. The charger sat inside the hood and when I parked, the
cord was easy to find via the grill, and I plugged it in unitl the
next time I left. Charging the 6 volt battery on 6 volts didn't
really work, so I set it to 12 volts and the glass circuit breaker,
that looked like the small glass neon lights, or like the smallest of
the Xmas tree lights, tripped every 11 seconds, and stayed off for 4
seconds, so 4 times a minute, 240 times an hour. 3360 times a day for
100 days is 336,000 times, but still works fine 43 years later. BTW,
it was second hand when I got it from my 80-year old cousin.

What this wire is called or where to get it, I do not know. Mine came
from a big spool used by some utility maybe, maybe the electric
company.

If that wire was from the 60's, the insulation contains LSD.

This probably accounts for all the abnormalities of my posts here and
elsewhere, and everything that ever went wrong in my life.

Especially if it was near a frat house. It sounds to me like you have
been removing that insulation with your teeth when you strip the ends.

No. I used a knife, but I would lick the knife afterwards. It gave me
a special feeling.

All that has to happen is for that insulation to touch your tongue and
you go on a 6 month AcId tRiP. Sounds to me like you're at your
climax right about now.

If you chew that insulation every hour of every day for a year, that
would be 24 chews per day, 8760 chews per year, and if each chew sends
you on an AcId tRiP for 6 months, you'll be TRiPPiN for 4,380 years,
or 58.4 lifetimes. Knowing this, you should be StONeD until the year
6391 (give or take a few years).

Please describe your hallucinations, we all want to know what colors
you are seeing, and I dont mean the common ones like red yellow green
blue etc. Describe the colors that have no names so we can all see
them.....

But I don't know how to describe them. There are a lot of black
letters that change to blue when I click on RPely. What does RPely
mean, anyhow?

And when you begin to see music, and smell the audio
spectrum, please tell us what it's like.

Peace - Love
