I just like to judge whether it is an idiot I should listen to or an idiot I should ignore. Anyway I am speaking to everyone at the moment. Perhaps it is time to *bolt* for cover and belt up!

Think! why does a screwdriver magnetise by screwing. What influence is at work? Is it just the screwdiver or is the screw also left with a stored potential. What happens when a piece of metal has a stored polarised potential, be it magnetic or induced voltage, and develops a *friendly* relationships with other nearby conductors.

As King Louie said "I wanna be like you hoo hoo"

Apply similar thinking to stranded twisted cable!
