How Electricity Actually Works

"We don’t know a millionth of one percent about anything." (Thomas Edison)

Lucky for those in this hobby we've managed to blindly stumble upon enough to record and reproduce that recording to an amazing accuracy. Good thing it didn't require us to dissect the Universe.
