If you built a circuit with a big inductor and a big capacitor in
series,
such that the resonant frequency was 50Hz, then connected it to the
mains,
would you get current flowing 180 degrees out of phase with the
voltage,
and run the meter backwards?

Dont! - he's stupid enough to do it.

What are you telling him not to do? His text is missing.

He was telling you to put a series resonant LC across the mains.

That was my idea.

And I told him you were stupid enough to do it.
