Blackgates Engineering - Renowned as a cynical trader?

Depends on your defintion of live.... The best bits of him were thrown away at birth

< Usual Drivel Snipped>

Moral - Don't bother listening to the drivel this idiot posts.

We all wonder the purpose of any of your postings to usenet Gareth - you must have no friends or a social circle of one.

Why the cross posting?

Are you really Stan Mould?

(see uk.legal if you don't know who he is!)

Leigh....

How can I be sure that he actually is G.A.Evans, G4SDW, Out And About Systems Ltd, 13 Hardens Close, Chippenham, Wiltshire, SN15 3AA, (01249)

651897 ?

A quick trawl round UK.radio suggested:

G.A.Evans, G4SDW,

13 Hardens Close, Chippenham, Wiltshire, SN15 3AA, 01249 651897

Two doors up from:

Perhaps he has a history:

How did he get on here:

And my favourite:

Agreed.

Yes, but on the planet Theanus, which is very similar to Earth but has different BR68 and laws of physics, etc. probably because all their scientists and engineers build every piece of equipment from scratch. Standing in a pile of bits, rather than on the shoulders of giants.

******************************** SemiConductor Theory

-------------------- (c) 1997 by Gareth Alun Evans

A transistor is rather like the human alimentary canal, after the typical USA diet of burgers and chips; - it constipates, as do semiconductor diodes with no applied bias - the available holes get filled in and nothing can move. The base current is like a small application of laxative; some of the constipation passes through, until the effect of the laxative wears off. The total throughput depends upon the Mobility. By applying a continuous feed of laxative, then a continuous current passes through. Applying too much laxative results in saturation - ie, there is a limit to the maximum throughput, depending on the external circuit; in this case, the maximum rate at which you can feed in the burgers at one end. (If you are a customer of MacDonalds's, here in Chippenham, Wiltshire, UK then this rate is very low - I have been there twice, and both times, the service was *APPALLING*.) The difference between PNP and NPN is the direction. In the old days, PNP was used, whereby one injected from the rear end, using a sort of huge syringe - hence PNP - "Put-in Near Poo". More recently NPN is more common, where the laxative is entered via a carrier of some sort, usually chocolate and so we have NPN - "Now Pleasant Nutrient". Despite the adverse effects, the USA diet of burgers and chips carries on, and recourse has to be made once again to the chocolate. Now the ratio of the carriers of the constipation, the burgers and chips, is much higher than that of the chocolate. Thus they are referred to as the Majority Carriers and the Minority Carriers. If you indulge too much, you find that the vendor will provide you with a paper bag, known as an Excess Carrier.

Be fair John, That was a very interesting explanation of the process of minority carrier conduction. Given the quality of the output of our education system, I would think that with a bit of polishing it could be used at university level :-)
