Andrew I really don't know for sure either! Long ago and far away..... be happy to pay up... will you take a check(que)?

Ps. I also did the steel fence wire air resistor coil back when I was fooling around with batteries. That method I learned from Michael Hackelman's book "Wind and Windspinners".

Another thing in common I wanted to mention but forgot -- first car was an Austin Healy 3000 that I bought (used and with problems of course) for $500. A bit low slung for Vermont snows, and I'd knock the muffler off the headpipes if I wasn't careful going up a gas station sidewalk ramp...but FUN!!!

Especially enjoyed the electric overdrive.

America was set up as a corporation, : The Virginia Company of London (also called the “London Company”) was chartered by King James with the object of colonizing the eastern coast of North America between latitudes 34oN and 41oN. It’s shareholders were Londoners. Still exists today, corporation certificates still on file and current.

All original colonizers were of British citizenship, all born on American shores were foreign, First landed people were 1640 ish…. Makes the majority American decent in 1760 ish, hence the saying enemy of the crown.

We still drink tea, you ice it, but taxes are still paid on both side of the pond thanks to the corporation that’s still functioning.

...All original colonizers were of British citizenship, all born on American shores were foreign,....

Ahh that explains it.

Would that be true today as well?

Unequivocally….

England as does America only recognizes subjects born on its shores.

Well you learn something every day. Seems an odd way to do things to me, but then, I do things in odd ways from the perspective of most of my friends! 

Maybe that single fact made what happened later inevitable, and  tea and taxes only proximal causes. 

Sorry to have wandered so far OT! 

Lesseee.....batteries acting oddly..... 

ps. I drink hot tea. Northern states hot, southern states iced -- more or less.
