    I think Streets has pretty well covered the technical aspects of Johnson Rod application and operaton. The only thing I can think to add would have to be... HUH????

    With this being a holiday weekend and all, It seems some one should mention the dangers of drinking and driving. After reading Streets last reply I'm reminded perhaps drinking and typing should also be avoided.

    You're new here, so I'll fill you in. It's the cutting oil he uses that does that!!

    What Streets was tryin' to say had to do with the TERTIARY STRUCTURE of the Flavin/Klavin rods as described in the Biotechnology-speak that we are all going to have to learn; especially when they start making "molecular engines". I have already spent one career at the deeper level of the atoms in those rods. He has already mastered the description of the Klavin rods from an old Bentley which are "bent" according to which bank they are on. I started from a Model-T commutator (the great grand daddy of the HEI sparkenmaker) and after many years of higher mathematics I learned that the commutator of linear momentum and x-position is h-bar divided by "i". Now when you wield an h-bar by eye you sometimes miss and the commutator won't work, and when you make a mistake you have to walk the Planck (h = 6.62 x 10^-27 erg sec, where an erg is the last word of a dynin-centimeter). So you see (using your "i") you have to be careful using an h-bar on very small atoms and molecules, but just as Streets used Biotechnology-speak for the slightly larger things, we may need to study "Quantum Mechanics" when they start mass production of molecular engines! Despite my baloney here, some people really are working on molecular machines including engines, but on a very small scale of course!

    I don't hafta' know all that stuff cuz' I'm still runnin' the ol' analog J. Rods. Ya' just plug em' in N' go. Oh... ya' might hafta' replace a smoked resistor once in awhile, but ya' can trouble shoot em' with er' basic Sears Ohm meter. Then "YER OFF". I know cuz' I have people tell me that quite often.
