Subject: Mr. Poe asserts: Einstein and Random House are =?UTF-8?Q?=E2=80=9C?= unreliable sources =?UTF-8?Q?=E2=80=9D.?=

You ( Mr. Poe ) told me:
“ The dictionary is an unreliable source for
explanations of technical terminology. ”.

No, --> You <-- are an “ unreliable source ”,
especially compared to Einstein and/or
the latest copy of The Random House Unabridged Dictionary.

In “ news:Jeff_Relf_2007_Jul_16__10_56_Ab@ ” I asked Gisse:
“ Can a battery produce a magnetic force ? How about a power plant ?
What makes you think magnetic force is unrelated to voltage ? ”.

., “ magnetic force ” ( . “ magnetism ” ) means:
“ attraction for iron;
associated with electric currents as well as magnets;
characterized by fields of force [ syn: magnetism ] ”.

., moving magnets around a wire produces a voltage,
. an ElectroMovtive Force.

Then, in “ new: @ ”
you joined Mr. Man, defending Gisse, telling me:
“ The question was specifically what EMF means.
That is not a question about EMF. ”.

Right... Good show, as usual.
