    Well it's approaching 90F in Nuevo Laredo essays.

    Time to start APU AC.

    Sheltering in place is continuing.

    They have some sort of serious drama on in the movie room, where the AC is free.

    The state doesn't accept the fact that it's their fault too I suspect.

    And the specified strings..... Detailed instructions....

    In Benjamin Franklin's 1752 kite experiment, a hemp string was used for the main, wet line to conduct electricity, while a silk string was used for the dry part connected to the key for insulation. The hemp was conductive when wet, and the silk kept the flyer safe by being non-conductive when dry.
    Key details of the experiment setup include:
    • Hemp String: Attached to the kite and soaked in rain, it conducted the electrical charge down from the storm cloud.
    • Silk String: Held by Franklin, it provided insulation to prevent him from being shocked.
    • Metal Key: Located at the intersection of the hemp (wet) and silk (dry) strings, it acted as the conductor to collect the electricity and charge a Leyden jar.
    • Kite Structure: Made from a large silk handkerchief and two cedar sticks.
