Oh yes as a very temporary link to do an always attended emergency link up between two batteries, the purpose for which they were designed. i.e. connecting two batteries together for a few minutes to assist in boosting one of the batteries allowing the starting of an engine. Extremely bad practices for jump leads to be left connecting to fully charged batteries on a boat or anywhere for weeks let alone days. The possible damage and danger that could result from the positive end of a jump lead becoming detached from one of a pair of batteries banks and shorting to the hull according to you nothing. Rather it could hole the hull; cause a fire, etc. 300/400 amps or more from several hundred-amp hours of batteries. Any insurance company would not be happy when it went wrong and refuse any claim. A boat at a mooring for several months, being passed by others, causing movement of the boat with batteries joined positive to positive by a jump lead. A floating time bomb. Wotever or wotever you call yourself here you are stupid and I hope no one ever takes your advice and connects two batteries bank for days, weeks or months using a jump lead style cable and there is an accident. I hope anyone who read and takes this advice will know where to find you to sue you for the advice and damage and delta9 for that matter as he published it. Sorry D9 but that is where the law stands and lays the responsibility on the advice giver, if a competent person, and the publisher. Wotever has displayed himself here as a competent person on the subject on this and other sites. Geo, Geoff, Whoever... You should be proud to know I now have you heading up my Twat column having recently overtaken Martin and his dreary, pointless caravan pronouncements. You are now King Twat. Class work. Thank you tomsk, wish I could say it was hard work but I can't. They made it so easy for me. Is there an Emperor Twat? If so can I go for that. How many Twats do I have to get for that.  |

lol Mr Norman if you do not know the law regarding the advice you give maybe you should. Your friend or should I say enemy obviously did and maybe have actually been and engineer, I don't know, but he seems to have appreciated the responsibilities and knew them. I am beginning to believe you don't, which makes me wonder if you really are qualified. Neither my friend nor my enemy. Just someone with remarkably similar failing in knowledge and logic to you, and a remarkably similar reliance on the law. Well not really remarkable I suppose, more like inevitable. As to my qualifications, well I have a first class degree in bullshit spotting. |

Wotever or wotever you call yourself here you are stupid and I hope no one ever takes your advice And you, Geo or whatever you call yourself these days are an egotistical overbearing know-all who should be old enough by now to have learnt some humility. But you see I am not important I matter not a jot. The poor posters on the other site are the ones who are important not me. humility : the quality of having a modest or low view of one's importance. egotistical: excessively conceited or absorbed in oneself; self-centred. |

As to my qualifications, well I have a first class degree in bullshit spotting. I don't think you would know the truth if it hit you in the face. Learn some diplomacy. Others follow you and copy you and your attitudes. You recently had a good chance to really impress and you mucked it up because of that bully in you, you could not speak with a quiet tongue, so you lost your case and got a ban. It was such a shame. Mind you, you had impulsively built your case on a bed of sand using incorrect data, but even so there was sufficient substance, assuming statements were provable, that with a quiet tongue you could have won. A crack appeared on the other side and you had to try and bully to show you were the one that mattered. Pity because I suspect that is what allowed Daniel to win, because win he has. He has got exactly what he wants I believe. Out from under the 'fluffies' as you call them and out from under you and your colleagues here. He can now run the forum exactly as he wants, which of course as he owns it is as it should be. Whether that is good or bad I do not know, time will tell. However it does seem to have encourage an increase in the people who are willing to risk the wrath of the famous three. Pity I cannot say five it would have rung so much better. Night night had a busy day and quite tired |

Now did you use a spade or a shovel. The Internet makes our world very small.  That is the myth of the century. Now Concorde gave the impression world had got smaller because people could get from A to B more quickly, so gave humans the suggestion of a reduction in the size of the world. The Internet has done no such thing. It still take as long to drive from London to Aberdeen, home of the Nick Norman, as it did the day that Leonard Kleinrock published his paper "Information Flow in Large Communication Nets". That lead to what is now called the Internet. Nor did what happened on that day in 1969, when the first message was sent on the Internet make it any smaller. Dates I remember, but no the world did not get any smaller. Since that day in 1969 the probability is the world has actually got larger, not by a huge amount in terms of the world, but larger it has got. |

graham was a bit obsessed with my personal details ie name and where I live, even though it's public domain information. Funny that! NOT! |

I disagree, I think the point which was being made is that it's much easier to find information about someone these days with the Internet. It does require a seed of truthful information though, otherwise it's easy to tar some poor soul with someone else's brush. What I find interesting is how some people are very open about their identity on the Internet and others use anonymity. It seems we usually use anonymity to either protect ourselves from malicious people or to carry out malicious acts (or both!). What I am certain of is that most of the flame we see on forums wouldn't happen if all parties involved were not anonymous, or more pertinent, discussed things face to face. |

What I am certain of is that most of the flame we see on forums wouldn't happen if all parties involved were not anonymous, or more pertinent, discussed things face to face. Oh I do not think that was the intent of the post so to indicate; rather it was meant to frighten maybe even threaten. 90% of the alleged information on the WWW is incorrect and for that reason cannot be used without other major proof. Your statement "...it's easy to tar some poor soul with someone else's brush." is the reason why who people really know about the WWW use a VPN, never put confidential information about themselves online, do not have facebook accounts, or tweet, etc and never use unsecured and unencrypted routes. Unfortunately there is more malicious intent on the WWW than there is anything else. Information I saw recently strongly suggested that more than 50% of the traffic on the WWW is related to malicious intent. I am not at all sure about your second paragraph last sentence. You are probable too young to remember the pub society particularly around docks, factories etc it did not matter that people were face to face and they certainly did not discuss things they did that day's version of flaming as you call it. It would appear that bullying is worse today than it was when I was born. |
