  1. Tim Barber started following swansont
  2. Objectively speaking, whatever a person in a coma thinks or does not think is irrelevant. (I spent a week in a coma many years ago after a car wreck).
  3. What I would like to see is numbers for RATE of electron flow. e.g. # of electrons / second passing through a conductor (air in the case of lightning) vs. the number of electrons / second passing through the wires that power you home. The same or not? How many electrons/second are passing a fixed point in each conductor?
  4. Death is the halting of biological functions which in humans leads to a loss of consciousness (whatever that is).
  5. The meaning of MY life is to search for answers to these and many other questions.
  6. I am trying to expand my knowledge of electricity. I always thought that electricity and light move at one constant speed. If this is true, then how can there be a wide range of current flow? I think of current flow as (electrons/second). If this is not true, then what are the limits of speed of electron flow (low and high) through a conductor?
