I guess we're of a different generation. Fearless! Crazy. A polish electrician I once knew (fully qualified in the UK - honest) also used to do the same thing to check if a socket was live. It's a lot better IMV than relying on a neon screwdriver. But I'm NOT suggesting anyone else do it! Various people used to stick their finger in live things, but its pretty stupid to gamble with your life when nowadays a meter costs £2. I reckon it qualifies for a darwin award nomination. NT |

It's not exactly rocket science to piece it together and paste it into a browser. My apologies to CD. I'm using Pan which I'm now 'panning' on account it unforgivingly line wrapped a web page address. As you point out, it's not rocket science but all the same it is a damned nuisance when a news client fails to suppress the line wrap on web links. Btw, Mike, what did you think of the meter? Just to give you an idea of the meter's size, the box dimensions are 135mm wide by 160mm long and 54mm deep. -- Johnny B Good |
