The Life of Ion or “The Effects of Static Electricity on Young Women and their Clothing” –

This is a study of negativity and positivity!

This post is not to be viewed by those that are offended by images of a sexually, almost explicit images of young women crossing the street. Although the primary mission of this post is to educate and help those who do not understand static electricity, I can assure you that some folks will believe otherwise if they happen to read all the way to the end of this posting.

It is not fair to the writer of this post, that’s me Chris Cane, to report me to the interweb authorities for creating a posting that offends you. Please see this bucolic scene to stop now and not read on.

Again! If you are offended by images of young fully dressed women crossing the street then <Click Here> for a bucolic scene.

Since you are choosing to read on, you can take roughly five minutes and watch this boring video of the “Life of Ion”. I am not recommending that you do watch this video as it is right on target and nothing to do with the reason I posted this. This will become clearer as you read on.

The other day a friend and I were walking through one of Ohio’s famous adult bookstores when he touched the door knob and got a shock from static electricity. He turned to me and said,” Damn, I wish someone would explain static electricity to me.”

So I did….and here is my explanation. Especially for the non-engineering inclined.

Static electricity is an imbalance of electric charges within or on the surface of a material. The charge remains until it is able to move away by means of an electric current or electrical discharge. For modeling the effect of static discharge on sensitive electronic devices, a human being is represented as a capacitor of 100 picofarads, charged to a voltage of 4,000 to 35,000 volts. When touching an object this energy is discharged in less than a microsecond.

He looked at me as one would expect a deer to look when staring at the headlights of an oncoming vehicle. When I got home, I came across an image that I felt might explain it to him in a more thought provoking way.

This is where you need to leave if you are offended by images of young ladies in green silky dresses crossing the street on a dry windy day. <Click Here> to leave now.
