Archive-title: Sex Life of an Electron


One night, when his charge was pretty high, Micro-farad decided to seek
out a cute coil to let him discharge.  He picked up Milli-amp and took her
for a ride on his mega-cycle.  They rode across a Wheatstone bridge and
stopped at a magnetic field by a flowing current.

Attracted by her characteristic curves, Micro-farad soon had her fully charged
and excited.  Gradually, her resistance dropped to a minimum.  Micro-farad
then took out his high-tension probe and inserted it into her socket,
connecting them in parrallel and begin short-circuiting her shunt.

Fully excited, Milli-amp murmured, "Mho, Mho, give me Mho."  Micro-farad,
with his tube operating at a maximum, felt her current begin to flow.
Milli-amp soon reached her maximum flow.  The excessive current overheated
her shunt and deprived her of all of her electrons.

They fluxed all night, trying out all the various connections until
Micro-farad's magnet had a soft core and had lost all of its field strength.
Later, Milli-amp tried self-induction and damaged her solenoids.

Meanwhile, with his batteries fully discharged, Micro-farad was unable to
excite his field, so they spent the whole night reversing polarity and blowing
each other's fuses.
