Thought Faraday had a law of some kind in electricity , but then realized it was Maxwells corkscrew rule for current flow was thinking about. But sure there was a Farady law also its just on the periphery of my memory. The corkscrew rule had nothing to do with wine bottles either. JS

Probably thinking of Faraday's cage, something to do with simulated lightening strikes and protection from high voltage

Tut Tut John, you will have to get those books back out and sit them on your lap while you are having your granny nap, it may help.

Re: m v faraday
If that’s about the spaniels ears Des. Have had 2 spaniels and know what to do with them after combed the fleas out of them !!!. If about the Beaufort scale with living with brylcream boys my first thought was. A fighter aircraft of WW 11. Then thought better of it and remembered climate change and all the bad weather leading up to it and Noah’s Ark. As to reading books leave that to the intelligent people who have good vision. Frightened to go to sleep in case don’t wake up. Cheers JS.
