yesterday i was told-----in my demonstration of teh panama canal- and the transferring of my rubber duckie from atlantic to pacific dishpans, i did not mention the demo could be done without a siphon hose by simply pouring water to raise the duckie teh difference between the oceans...- however siphoning was more tidy when going from the pacific dishpan to the atlantic--(THERE IS AVARIABLE DIFFERENCE IN HEIGHT SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 3 AND 20 FEET BETWEEN THE TWO OCEANS .) opening any improvised sluice gate would be beyond flex tape control.
besides learnimg to syphon might be a valuable learned skill-- in case students get into having aquariums...
( teh syphoning of gas from my childhood days has long been made impossible by putting a kink in the gas line. darnit.)
there are soooo many simple things from my days of studying physics that blow kids minds...like if you have a rock on a string hanging from a TREE - you can stand with head against the tree and put the rock touching your nose-- just let it go and it will not swing back and NOT hit you in the face... however if you get someone else to do that and you control letting it go and give it a littel shove-- it will hit someone -- thus proving education is sometimes a valuable thing..... sometimes.
I LOVED TEH STUDY OF FORCES-- AS IN WHICH DIRECTION TO HAMMER NAILS. -- AND USE OF ENERGY IN THINGS LIKE DROPPING OF GOLFBALLS TO ENERGISE THOSE MOVEABLE WORKS OF CREATIVE ART SOMETIMES FOUND IN AIRPORTS
MUCH OF THE #$%^& I HAVE AROUND HERE WAS PUT ASIDE FOR WHEN I HAVE TIME....... I THINK I HAVE COME TO-- I WILL NEVER HAVE TIME TO FIND A USE FOR ALL THE #$%^&*.
TIME FOR A DUMP RUN .
IN THE PROCESS OF CLEARING OUT THIS SHED, I HAVE COME TO 1/2 A TRASH CAN OF ELECTRICAL WIRE ( COPPER) WHICH I CAN OFFER TO MY FRIENDS AT THE "TRANSFER STATION" IN EXCHANGE FOR LETTING ME DUMP STUFF HIDDENIN THE MIDDLE OF THE DUMPABLE STUFF.
