Quick power cord question:

"SHHH..."
 "They also still think that the electrons actually move!".
Let them keep believing it....hee hee. It's much more entertaining this way!

Dang!, And I just lost my "Opinionater 5000" measurement device. The one that came inside the (Ballistic popcorn vault and Anechoic chamber" 
. "It fell of the back of the truck 'round that one turn".

My ribs hurt soooo much right now...

Hmm,
"Connecting a battery to an insulation material (dielectric) - NOTHING happens! That is the nature of an insulator! "
 
Soo, "YOU", noticed not a thing eh? 
And you were, actively/passively measuring exactly "what", at the time in question? With what gear? In what frame of reference? Scale? Calibrated for? With all data recorded, verified and then crosschecked how and by what and/or whom?

Oh yeah, What was the question with which you were posing to begin with?
 
They still say "Ignorance is _____"
  For a ______!
