    I didn't.

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

    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.
