    Um. This guy doesn't know what he is talking about. The first sign is he said "electrons in the power grid are just wiggling back and forth. they never really go anywhere." lol not even close to true.

    Quick question about Cut Induced Throw

    Probably what you are thinking of is when electrons move they create a magnetic field. The magnetic field is outside of the wire the electrons are moving through. Lots of cool ideas came from this discovery. Transformers are one. Electric motors another.

    Quick question about Cut Induced Throw

    Please pool players, do not talk about electricity and electomagnetics if you do not have a degree. I really hurts those of us who actually know about the subject.

    Capelle's Practicing Pool

    I have read a few of Capelle's books. Play Your Best Pool, Play Your Best Straight Pool, and Capelle's Practice Pool. I'm not the best person to do a book review. But anyway.

However, there are alow many good ones. JJ was mentioned. Agree. Allison Fisher also very good. For her you...
