replies: text: The current article discusses AgOH, so it makes sense to redirect here.  The information on AgOH (AuOH, Ti(OH)4 etc) is so flimsy that these materials are often described in the context of the better characterized reference materials to which the hydroxides decompose.  One of these days someone will write an article on AgOH.  Just started is an article on hydrogen astatide, so editors are prowling for simple compositions where textbooks can guide them to fill out tables and extrapolate properties.--Smokefoot (talk) 13:42, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Sam Gejdenson

message: Statements about Gejdenson's parentage and education conflict with what I had heard and read, and with what is posted in US Congress and on his own website. That says he was the first child of Holocaust survivors. 
The current Wikipedia article states he is the child of an American soldier and army nurse, which if true would seem to make unlikely his being born in a displaced persons camp. 
When first running for Congress, Sam Gedenson spoke very frequently all over the district (where I reside). He seemed personable and funny and was an excellent storyteller.
The biographical account I recall from over 25 years ago was that his parents were Russians who fled first to a Scandinavian country (I forget which one) and changed their name to Gejdenson to fit in there, and at the war's end went (or were sent)  to Germany. When he first ran for Congress, in a primary campaign among five Democrats, some of the other candidates, who heard one another's speeches over and over, remarked that he often reinvented his family history. I suspect someone else invented the soldier and nurse story. Some documentation would be helpful.
His website  says he received an associates degree from Mitchell College in 1968 and a BA from UConn in 1970. The current article says he received a BA from Mitchell College and entered UConn graduate school.  Mitchell College did not give a bachelor's degree until 2000. .

message: "this core contains more than just flux, it also contains various ingredients that when exposed to the high temperatures of welding generate a shielding gas for protecting the arc. This type of FCAW is attractive because it is portable and generally has good penetration into the base metal. Also, windy conditions need not be considered."
The article currently makes this claim about the action of the ingredients in the core of the flux-core wire used in FCAW-self-shielding. If someone has a reference for this claim, please add it? My impression is that the main action of flux core is to create a protective slag over the cooling weld metal, and it provides ingredients that deoxidize and denitride.  In this I agree with a previous commenter, who mentioned a book by a Professor Tad Bonisiewski, but google didn't find me anything by that name. If indeed the flux produced significant shielding gas, then the later claim that "windy conditions need not be considered" would not be valid. Gwideman (talk) 04:07, 17 June 2018 (UTC)

message: I understand that, for chemists, the names of this and other porphyrin-related compounds refer to the complete neutral molecules, with all the  groups in protonated form.

thread_title:  seasonal summer-only operation 

message: >  A few months after the shutdown, South Australia experienced a major storm in late September 2016 which damaged electricity distribution infrastructure and tripped out several wind farms and other generators.
The storm damage being described was to transmissions network infrastructure NOT distribution network infrastructure. They both are collections of poles and wires, but the difference is Transmission operates at factors of ten higher voltages and power ratings on the lines. They are those big quadrangle based towers with a dozen lines or more hanging from them at great heights. The distribution network is the poles and wires between houses and commercial enterprises and the sub-stations. From the substations it tends to be transmission networks. Ownership is almost always separated for these two types of networks Australia since the privatisation wars of the 80s and beyond, no matter if its private or publicly owned today. An acceptation is WA where the transmission network (high voltage) and distribution network ("street" level) for their SWIS grid around Perth is all publicly owned by Western Power, with seperate divisions for transmission and distribution responsibilities. 
The transmission lines were downed because lines came down when many of the towers were uprooted with their lightweight footings still attached and their steel members were bent like pretzels.
