Which side am I, out of curiosity? I guess I've got about as much seniority as anyone else.

What is this all about? I've sort of been skipping reading a lot of stuff here lately. Is this something important? If I can get in the Inner Circle, do I get a cool decoder ring or something?

You know what's funny? Everyone in here will deny being a part of it. People like Paperpusher, MsGeek, and Mr. Pollard are more respected in the Daria online community than most, but dont' really post on ATD as often as some of the others.

The only clearcut choice, in my opinion, is Alli. She should be the leader.

In article ,

Yep

If you're at ac (and higher frequency) not only could you resist but you could react, as long as your phase is not close to zero.

Not to go into a electronics lesson here

Z = R + j* X Impedence = Resistance + j* Reactance phase = arctan(X/R)

where j = the square root of -1

Finally something I'm sort of an expert on! (I figured that eventually it would turn to this - being an off topic ng, and all)
