Yeah, us being electric machines required a clarification that human generated electricity is what does not work in his presence. the whole research and writing process for this was facinating.
Which one is the pen name, Morrison or Citizen? And I clicked your mug shot (That is a mug shot, correct?). What was the sentence for being found a serial novelist?
I hear a lot of you guys write to pass the time. Good for you! So, youāve done your time and enjoying freedom as a free-lance author? Good for you!
Iāll look for the book when Iām in Walmart and purchase a copy. Sure glad I could help with the effort!

Fifty years ago I saw a Japanese 3 wheel truck with a diesel engine under the bed. It had a small stove where a piece of oil rag was burned to heat the cylinder head/glow plug and once warmed the engine was hand cranked. There were quite a few similar trucks on local roads and many may not have been diesel. There was a lot of very basic transportation on the roads of Japan back then.

That is awesome!
Dan, that is awesome! Iām in Florida on the Sun Coast, hasnāt rained for over 2 months, sunny every day, always something to do outdoors.
Itās Saturday everyday, and I canāt tell what season weāre in. It seems itās summer everyday of the year!.
However, if I ever get some rain or have a reason to be inside, Iād love to read your book. Iām not much for fiction, Iām too literal, but perhaps this book could change things for me, right?
Iāll be writing my first book soon and it will be non-fiction. Iāll also be working on my second $ million. I gave up on the first $.million.
Anyhow, thanks! I tried the link and it works. Awesome. Thanks! Good Luck! Best wishes!

You could have done any type of Deus Ex Machina move in your book to bend the rules of fact to make it work for you and the character in the book, but for the record, there is absolutely no difference between human generated, atmospherically generated, Eel or static generated electricity. They are all the exact same article.

Even the chemical reaction known as āfireā involves the movement of electrons.

The original movie is MUCH better than the remake with Keanu Reeves
A colleague advised me to watch the remake, and Iām sorry I did

Plasma, being electrically conductive, acts like a Faraday shield blocking radio waves.

I saw that movie in my younger life, decades ago. Funny (peculiar, not ha, ha) that you posted that here, Iāve made reference to that old sci-fi flick several times during the past several weeks. Visualizing a world with no vehicles was practically a reality, yesterday, on my bicycle trip. I live in a normally fairly/very traffic dense area, especially during spring break, and it was unbelievably eerie! 
Itās as if the world stood still!

Will do and thanks much for posting the old B & W clip. It was great. I do remember watching that Saturday matinee flick in the movie theater when I was a boy. It was sensational.
Wait! Why did my screen suddenly go dark and my computer shut down?
