'''I created an original blog on Politics in 2003. The main target was the corrupting influence of war-mongering Republican idealogues such as George W. Bush, Texas good-hair Senator Cornyn, and their "House Majority Leader," (Chemical) Tom DeLay--a man who has gassed hundreds of thousands of his own people--cockroaches.' (DeLay owned a toxic chemical pest exterminating company before selling it under questionable eithical standards and becoming a questionable ethical standard GOPPER politician.)''

I am not as talented as other Wikians who have blogs about their Wiki-stuff, but I aspire to greatness anyway.

 * Wikiquote

As of 11 of April 2005 i've made in excess of 700 edits to Wiktionary and written lots of individual word articles. For a list of articles and edits I've participated in, see this link

As a group Wiktionarians have penned a total of  articles since the project began.

Beliefs & Opinions
I would like to think the world is NPOV. Since that is not the case, I will do my best to be "NPOV." When that becomes impossible, I will not touch the story. I welcome aggravating criticism on any article's talk page.

Warning to general Wiki readers: The following are merely my opinions of a few issues, not facts.

 * I believe in Wiktionary, Wikipedia and other Wikis.
 * I believe that in general people are good.
 * I am pro-choice. A woman's decisions are hard enough without men getting between her and her doctor.
 * I think Darwin was really on to something. If I thought the world began with Noah's Ark, I would not believe in fossils.
 * I practice Tai Chi. I like David Carradine and reruns of Kung-Fu.
 * Dr. Hunter Thompson was one of my literary heroes. He hated Republican politicians. I know this because he was the subject of several of my CNN chats in the year 2000, when the Earth still had a chance with President William Jefferson Clinton.
 * I think it is time for the United States to embrace a third political party so we can have an opposition party. The Democrats are nothing more than Bush-lite republicans.

With a Master's Degree in English Education from a University in Pennsylvania, Alan J. Franklin, AKA HiFlyer, set out to change the world one word at a time.

That was in 1972. This is now, and looking at Wikinews, Wiktionary, and the other Wiki projects, I am a happy retiree!

I have many interviews with famous and infamous people to add to the equation, mostly done during a stint as a news production person with CNN. There are interviews with some interesting people in my library, including one with the current resident of the White House completed before his first court victory in 2001.

Hopefully, my news production stint will enable my articles here to be reasonably clear. Let's all learn the Wiki-ropes together.

And a special hello to many of my former chat mates from my SYSOP days at CNN, before the magic died and they killed off Mirc chat right along with Al Gore.

Visit my politically incorrect blog, Nasty Letters, and browse the "Archives" for good things to keep you laughing!

Now that you know my politics (?), know that they do not influence my presentation of events. Political posturing is reserved for my blog. I am registered "Independent," and I don't like the Dems much more than the GOP.

I live a mile away from NASA's Johnson Space Center in Clear Lake City and hope to bring Wiki readers first hand reports on our space program.

Save for Sex Wiktionary?

 * Um, why? Right on the front page it says all words of all languages, not "G-rated words in selected semantic fields".  —Muke Tever 16:22, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * Though that would be humorous if it did. --Eean 08:36, 29 Dec 2004 (UTC)

 * Um, because. It's not a 'word.' It's slang used by various forms of homosexuals (not that there's anything wrong with that) and porn stars. So call it slang. Call it what it is. But it's not a word in common usage, which is what a 'word' in a dictionary of the 'people' should represent. Otherwise, watch this page for a definition of FUCK --HiFlyer 02:03, 31 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * And apparently Irish Football (or whatever that whacky sport is) fans. The word is even in the 1913 Webster. Regardless, it doesn't take much for a word to enter the dictionary. Open up an OED sometime, they got all sorts of wacky words (our criteria for inclusion is rather similar to the OED's, I assume not on accident). --Eean 06:46, 31 Dec 2004 (UTC)
 * (I know it's late, but) This sense is in the AHD (fist) and is not marked as slang at all. —Muke Tever 17:40, 1 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * Eean, opening up a 1913 dictionary, to which I do not have ready access, shouldn't convince you that this 'procedure' is a word. I think the criteria used in here is to be original, right? I am not a 'prude' or even a republican. But I will argue that this whole discussion, which I started quite innocently, is more about what we want the final product to be, than it is about slipping this obnoxious gerund past the gatekeepers.

It's nothing personal to me. This is my last entry on the subject. I must return to fisting a bull-alligator in my pool. It comes here every weekend and demands sex or my pet cat. Having lost several pets to the monster already, I accidentally stuck my fist up its ass and found a mutual pleasure spot. Yes, my fist comes back smelling like long-dead fish, but this advanced form of sex keeps my alligator at bay, and saves my pussy. --HiFlyer 14:35, 31 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Talk:electricity

Misc discussion
the quotes confuse me... the first quote isn't even a phrase and doesn't have electricity in it and the second quote uses roman numerals for the month. --Eean 08:58, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)

 * It's incomplete;  I'll fix it. Omegatron 00:04, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

I listed his quote under the "fundamental property" definition, but that's only somewhat correct. In his day, it was not thought of as having positive and negative forms. "Electricity" simply meant "the property of being an electric", where "electric" was a noun and meant "an object which can be electrified and attract small bits of dust" and so on. Descended from electricus which means "like amber [in its attractive properties]" Omegatron 02:34, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

The fundamental definition of electricity should/could be power since we(humans) only experience electricity in a power situation. To my knowledge(maybe someone can enlighten me) all electricity is derived from a primary energy source(with lightning being a possible exception).

 * I couldn't agree with you more. The everyday sense requires not knowledge of physics or the words "electron", "charge", "current". Even "energy" seems a little abstract for the definition. We like to be "descriptive" in our definitions, but this often fails for technical terms because those who have expertise in the related field seem to feel entitled to "correct" the imprecise, but actual, definitions and instead provide technical ones of supposed (but usually not actual) precision. I have attempted a better everyday definition. It still needs cleanup. DCDuring TALK 17:14, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

The Scientific Definition
The scientific definition is missing. Only popular, non-scientific definitions are used? The "Unit Quantity of Electricity" is the coulomb, not the joule or ampere, and the scientific definition of "electricity" is as electric charge (not carriers in a conductor. Instead, coulombs, or electric charge itself.)  A quantity of electricity is measured in coulombs, and the flow of electricity is measured in coulombs/second or amperes. Here's the SI definition on the NIST website (see table 3, electric charge): [| NIST.ORG]    Here's the CRC handbook of chemistry and physics, see electric charge: [| CRC Handbook 2004-2005]
 * There is no scientific definition of electricity. Electricity is treated as the name of a phenomenon, comparable to "gravity" or "combustion". I mean, what is the unit of gravity? There isn't any! Like you said, electric charge has a definition and a unit, the coulomb. But electricity and electric charge are not the same: electricity is what happens when electric charges interact, which is very different. 13:49, 17 November 2012 (UTC)

 * Of course there is a scientific definition. It's the one used by Faraday, Maxwell, Millikan, Thompson, and currently appearing in the current NIST/SI definition of units in physics: the coulomb is the quantity of electricity.  In Faraday's law of Electrolysis, the quantity of reactant products is directly proportional to the quantity of electricity passed between the electrodes, and today's chem students are familiar with "Faradays of electricity" and the Faraday constant.  As you say, in the general non-scientific usage "electricity" is like "dynamics" or "biology."   We can't have a quantity of dynamics, and dynamics cannot flow from place to place.   But under the SI definition of the unit quantity of elecricity, flows of electricity are called electric currents and measured in amperes, and quantities of electricity are measured in coulombs.  (No, there is no SI unit definition for "quantity of gravity;" no physics texts define "quantity of gravity," so the analogy doesn't resemble the situation with the term "electricity.") 75.172.142.60 16:51, 27 May 2018 (UTC)

Talk:tsunami

Umm, why is definition #2 in German? — Hippietrail 01:46, 30 Dec 2004 (UTC)

I dunno but I moved it here: Flutwelle, die durch Unterseebeben (vorrangig im Pazifik) entsteht und sich im flachen Wasser bis zu 35 Meter hoch auftürmen kann. I can read 'Pazifik' and '35 meter', so it looks like its just the same definition.

 * It reads: "Tidal wave generated by an undersea earthquake (usually in the Pacific), and which may rise up as high as 35 meters in shallow water."

moved discussion of the correctness/incorrectness of tidal wave to the Talk:tidal wave page

Note: later moved to Category talk:English words affected by prescriptivism

 * Hmm actually I was discussing the history and usage of both terms but that's okay. — Hippietrail 00:25, 31 Dec 2004 (UTC)

 * That's true, but as a whole, the conversation seemed more appropriate in the tidal wave talk page. Or should it be in both places?

 * No that would only fragment the discussion which belongs in one place. I did post the link to this page on another forum requesting comments before it was moved though - but oh well (-: — Hippietrail 00:42, 31 Dec 2004 (UTC)

 * I did feel weird about including "natural disaster" as a phrase, and I suppose it is being inconsistent to suggest that awe-inspiring does not deserve an entry. In any case, they belong in the same realm: two-word phrases in common use that are simply the sum of their parts, and carry little to no extra meaning.
 * Upon reflection, I would argue that natural disaster has actually developed its own meaning through exclusive use: it would be odd to use natural disaster to refer to any disaster that is natural; it is only generally used for disasters of the sort that kill people and damage tremendous amounts of property or wilderness, whereas other types of disasters can include spilling ink on your khaki pants, and you won't hear the phrase natural disaster to refer to a tree falling on your house, even though as a non-idiom that would qualify.
 * None of this is to say that having a natural disaster category would be a bad idea, just that natural disaster as a phrase makes sense.

 * Yep I'm with you 100% here, I might have been a bit muddled last night. natural disaster is an idiom deserving its own article, and it would also make a good category. — Hippietrail 04:21, 5 Jan 2005 (UTC)

 * Hmm . . . there seems to be some disagreement on the technical meaning of tsunami. From a NOAA web site: Tsunami is a Japanese word meaning "harbor wave." It is a water wave or a series of waves generated by an impulsive vertical displacement of the surface of the ocean or other body of water. -dmh 18:06, 6 Jan 2005 (UTC)

 * Where's the disagreement? That seems to be in accordance with what we've written and discussed.

Talk:bushido

This is an entry for the English word "bushido" and as such there is too much emphasis on the Japanese here. The Japanese should be in the entries for the Japanese words, in the etymology sections of the appropriate English word if there is one, and in the translation section of each word which has an English counterpart. — Hippietrail 05:49, 30 Dec 2004 (UTC)
