YAAAAA my poll worked
no you are not using, the circut is open it is not closed which completes the circut and using electricity...Quote:

:think: huh...? i can't eat hot wings again... my stupid stomach still hurts... i did go to my doctor and all the bastard did was give me a strickt diet paper... i said "wtf... i'm going out to the waiting room and making out with that old lady that has the flu so that my Co-pay is worth it..."Quote:

That's how I remember it. A switch completes the circuit, sort of like a bridge connects two roads across a river. Without it, one side cannot effect the other.Quote:

Without amperage use, there is no real power being drawn, so there is no cost.
BTW, amperage kills not voltage. Just FYI. Some residual voltage can still be present and will shock you, just like static electricity. Some appliances, like TV's, have capacitors. They store energy and hold it for a while. that's why you can unplug a TV and touch a capacitor in it, five minutes later, and still get whacked.
:yup: try getting shocked by a 220 line pluggin in a drying machine... :rant: yeah... really funny to every one watching me... it would also have been nice to been let know that i was also standing in a puddle of water from connecting the washing machine as well... fuckers...Quote:

I should read slower sometimes.
But still, no power is being used. When you touch two spots in the opening YOU completed the circuit and that uses electricity. Otherwise, no wasted energy.
Now there is an answer to a LOT of questions about you Spaz!!!!:yup: :hahano:Quote:

Hey, fundamental electricity. A connection was made between points "A" and "B", so "C" your way out of it!!!:ughlaugh: :ughlaugh: :nana:Quote:

Gotta go ruck up and work a basketball game. Snow starts after midnight, and maybe an inch of ice tomorrow.
I'll be driving the truck tomorrrow!!!
Later ya'll.
:dunno: i guess... i think maybe the fact that i was standing in a puddle made the breaker pop... or maybe i'm immortal... :devil:Quote:
