    Bob, I like your humor. I stand by "most people wouldn't have a clue" not "a large percentage of readers of this forum" about Edison, Tesla and Westinghouse. Apparently a 77 year old Washingtonian male doesn't understand cute bartender humor. Still "The Devil in the White City" is a very interesting read, by Eric Larsen.

    No problem. Almost every industry or profession has their 'inside jokes' and the Tesla vs Edison is perhaps a little obscure ... still makes me grin.

    BTW, I showed the thread to the 'cute bar tender' and she loved it.

    I'm mostly the same either way, an 'e to the power x' personality.

    I'm still shopping, so I'm an "e to the minus i pi" guy [non-mathers should just type the part in quotes into google search - no dis-integration or un-deriving (or under-iving) needed]

    Use to work with students on their personality color. ORANGE are the smart but don't always show it. They are the life of a party or the classroom. Their room is a mess but they don't see it that way. Their locker at school would also be a mess. Always late for events. BLUE are the touchy feely caring types. Don't like conflict and want everyone to get along. Their room would have care bear posters, etc. GOLD are people who are super organized. If you look in their billfold all the bills would be in order and all facing the same way. Clothes in their closet would all be facing the same direction on the hangers. They have many "to do lists". Would never be late to meeting. Often showing up early and upset with those who are late. GREEN is the smallest group. The ones who like to take things apart and try to put them back together. Not very social. Very smart but often bored with regular schooling. Very into tech/engineering/ science.

    Are you a green Bob?

    Oh, my neighbors with the new hybrid took off for Kansas. I thought about giving them a sack of bread so they could leave bread crumbs to find them later. I went with my phone #. So far it must be OK.

    Yeah, they have that SOS button on the roof if they remember it is there.
