    How might electronics be different if AC voltage was 72V at 45 Hz?

    Your correct. But even 30 years ago, military radar (not always civilian) could add a known "non-sensical artifact" to their emissions. To anyone trying to spoof it, it would look like non-sensical noise, which would be ignored by an enemy. It would be a signature, to "our guys" The original ID...

    Australian Funnel-web spiders and delta-hexatoxin (aka Versutoxin)

    Since this event almost killed me (I had an anaphylactic reaction to the venom, as well as it's toxic effects), my hand where I was bit (stabbed actually, twice). blew up like a balloon. Noticed that when I woke up at the hospital. The $$%#@ fang went threw my thumb, ALL the way. It was...

    How might electronics be different if AC voltage was 72V at 45 Hz?

    I'm not an engineer, but Australia uses (if I recall) 212V AC for everything. Makes things simpler? You mention a different "sound". Translating MW radar into sound we can hear (something as radar, we can't hear naturally), has allowed people to tell the type and mode of various radars almost...

    Star maps using Blender

    Very interesting. It reminded me of what my company did in the 80's. We needed to take an optical image of a fingerprint, compress it, encrypt it, and send it to AFIS (Automated Fingerprint Identification System) at the FBI, Washington DC, and get a response in real time. The fastest chips...

    Stand their ground? Hell, he tried to follow me into my house! Thank God he couldn't unlock the door...

    B Is Gravity an entropic property like Surface Tension

    I think gravity may be so hard to define because it's not created/carried by a particle. It's a consequence of something else (mass, or perhaps also momentum). Like a shadow or reflexion of something else. It's a "byproduct", not an original force in it's own right.

    Australian Funnel-web spiders and delta-hexatoxin (aka Versutoxin)

    Weird question. Could analysis of that venom, provide insight into the intense territoriality of the funnel web? I was in Sydney in 1982 in college and gat bitten by one of the little (bleap). I tried to retreat, it came after me! It was in a bush, next to a pool I was in. I brushed the bush...
