My apologies to those who are content not (rpt not) to know how things work and who have distain for physics beyond the high school level and who have never heard of Einstein, Heisenberg, Thorne, Schrodinger, Hawking, Wheeler, Feynman, Marconi, Bo...

In response to the previous post I would point out that the argument that Aftermarket Fuses are too high for manufacturers to use them is a little weak inasmuch as 80% of all Aftermarket Fuses actually cost $50 or less, according to the list of av...
