It occured to me tonight whilst watching the TV adverts
( more interesting than the programme BTW)
the most useless peice of household "equipment" has to be
the dishwasher cleaner tablets or liquid ............FFS!
But the most useful has to be the thermos flask
It keeps hot things hot in the cold weather
it keeps cold thing cold in the hot weather
but how the hell does it know the difference :shrug:
Please feel free to add yours but the good old thermos gets my vote :thumbs:

This must be similar to my plug socket in the kitchen - plug in the fridge and it goes cold but plug in the fire and it goes hot! How does it know??

Lift on an aircraft's wing is purely a result of the presence of Lift Pixies.
Whilst they are best known for their elevative powers,
Lift Pixies also have the notable properties of being invisible to the sober
and having an extreme aversion to peace and quiet.

When a pilot begins the take off roll, the throttle is opened and the engine makes a lot of noise.
This noise attracts any Lift Pixies in the area and they jump on the wing
thus creating lift and raising the aircraft into the air.

When an aircraft enters a turn some of the Lift Pixies lose their footing and fall off the aircraft's wing.
This causes a loss of lift and unless the pilot takes immediate action the aircraft will descend.
By adding more power, the engine makes more noise and entices the Lift Pixes back onto the wing and lift is restored.

Lift Pixies don't wear shoes (obviously) hence they easily fall off wings in turns.
Your average airframe parked in the sun gets pretty hot so its unsuprising
thst the little fellas are reluctant to jump onto the wing's surface.
The only way to entice them onboard is more noise hence more power.
Either that or put up with a longer take off run



so next time you're squandering your hard-earned with squeezy or rye-and-scare...

I think the biggest is the current drive to force us all to use these crappy low energy lightbulbs "to save energy". But when the energy fat cats see their profits nosediving they'll jack up the bills to get back the money they enjoyed from the old light bulb days. Just wait and see..........
