The Sex Life Of an Electron
                        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
         One night, when his charge was plenty high, Macro Farad decided to get
 a cute little coil to let him discharge.  He picked up Milli Amps and took her
 for a ride on his megacycle.  They rode across a wheat-stone bridge and
 stopped in a magentic field near a small stream of eddy currents.
 
         Macro Farad, attracted by Milli Amps' characteristics curves, soon had
 her at minimum resistance and her field was fully charged.  Her ripples were
 pulsating heavily and her capacitors were getting hot and leaky.  He tried to
 test her short by pulling out his high voltage probe and inserting it in
 parallel.  He began to short circuit her shunt.  Fully excited, Milli Amps
 said, "Mho! Mho!"
 
         At last, synchronous motion was taking place around their two
 components.  His tube was at maximum potential and her coil was vibrating due
 to excessive current flow.  She soon reached her maximum peak, but Macro Farad
 was lagging behind and only after several time constants did he finally reach
 saturation and her pretty hot and Macro Farad's capacitor was rapidly
 discharging.
 
         They fluctuated all night at two cycles per second, trying various
 connections until Macro Farad's magnet had lost all of its field strength.
 Finally, Milli Amps even tried self-induction.  With his battery fully
 discharged, Macro Farad was unable to re-excite his field, so they ended up
 reversing polarity and blowing each other's fuses.
