As for the rest of the post about voltage, batteries and safety I'll just assume it had nothing to do with the question above... [/quote]It has nothing to do with voltage, batteries, or the like. It has to do I guess with making a false assumption about something, in this case the battery holders safety. It is inherently safe so I suppose rationale is what I am looking for.

can't do that to the wife [img]tongue.gif[/img] [/quote]I think a "yes dear you have cause for concern" is in order then offer to take her out for dinner and a movie.

I knew what you were saying, I just thought I would actually try to be helpful. (NOTE: Not trying to be snotty...just too tired to think of a polite way to phrase it).
I have a long history of helping Tony with his Carmela questions...
Last time I had a flat tire, I pulled my truck into one of those side-of-the-road gas stations. The attendant walks out, looks at my truck, looks at me, and I SWEAR he said, "Tire go flat?" I couldn't resist. I said, "Nope. I was driving around and those other three just swelled right up on me. Here's your sign."
It's like before my wife and I moved. Our house was full of boxes and there was a U-Haul truck in our driveway. My neighbor comes over and says, "Hey, you moving?" "Nope. We just pack our stuff up once or twice a week to see how many boxes it takes. Here's your sign."

Yes, I can't see Tony sitting around the Bada Bing with a cigar listening to the "Blue Collar Comedy Tour."

I don't understand, if this happens to you do you actually say here's your sign out loud to the person? Or is it just for the joke? I have never seen a single person say 'here's your sign', except for tv where I have seen it on that comedy show.

Stupid people should have to wear signs that just say, "I'm Stupid." That way you wouldn't rely on them, would you? You wouldn't ask them anything. It would be like, "Excuse me...oops...never mind, didn't see your sign."
And sorry for repost above, heres a different one for making you read it twice
A couple of months ago I went fishing with a buddy of mine, we pulled his boat into the dock, I lifted up this big ol' stringer of bass and this idiot on the dock goes, "Hey, y'all catch all them fish?" "Nope. Talked 'em into giving up. Here's your sign."

It has nothing to do with stupid questions guys, it simply is an explaination...a lack of knowledge about the battery holder lets say. Someone would ask a question not knowing that the battery holder is inherently safe to use. Get it?
After reading this thread and finding it very frustrating I'm going to chalk up my confusion to social illiteracy and try to remember not to click on it again.
