I didn't.

And yeah, this is Youtube. First one I've posted in over a year. Just FTR. And it has NO advertisements. :):laughing

Ummmm, there was an ad when I clicked on the video. :)

Yep, remember that stuff from Physics class in school. Forgot the dude's name ... Lent's Law ... Lentz's Law ... sumpin' like that ... I'll try to find it when I get a chance here. You can do the same thing with other metals ... aluminum, etc. The metals aren't magnetic, but it works like a motor or generator in a way and sets up an electrical field. Crap, I remember just enough about it to be dangerous. Pretty cool ... I think we used to do it with aluminum pipe also if I remember correctly (it's been a while).

well that's crazy. Dang, there is an ad. I SWEAR there wasn't first time I clicked on it.

Anyway, that's cool.

Heck, I probably knew this in college. I forget college, like totally.
