They get to sit around and use terms like Hz, and ohms and overload protection things that nobody else understands. I mean, you'd have to feel superior to, say a frisbee enthusiast, for example, if you could casually bring up in a conversation that your temperature stablility was better than 0.2 ppmdegrees C. or that you had a 57 ms gate time. Indeed, never was the gulf between electronics zealots and the rest of the world more clearly illustrated to me than in an advertisement I saw recently in a local newspaper. The product was a "hand-helit frequency calculator," and if you confused weren't yet, the rest of the ad read like this: "Extremely accurate instrument counts frequency from 10 Hz to more than 45 MHz with 100 mS gate time. Accuracy is 3 ppm at 25 degrees C or less than 30 Hz at 10MHz! Overload protected input. Sensitivity as low as 30 m V up to 30 MHz.

Only 25 CLp units (British) per stick great stuff." And then you could smack your lips loudly and comment on the n wonders of a low rate. And how about people who use toothpaste? Picture a young rising executive-type- , in his shirt sleeves, behind his desk in a dignified but plush office. The camera zooms in: "My doctor said I needed a Ph balance toothpaste, so I came to Teetho. Teetho is acid neutralized, and with an abrasion level of only 48 ppm (in international units), it's safe for anyone. But flavor is important to me too and Teetho doesn't let me down there, either. flavor-reductio- d six-dig- September 14, Thursday Garo-Gq- z Gra-Hal- 8:00-10:0- 10:00-12:0- l 0 0 September a.m. Jonf-Kin- noon Kinh-Lar- 12:00- - 2:00 p.m. Hasl-Hu- f 2:00-4:0- 0 p.m. Hug-Jon- e 4:00- - Halm-Has- k a.m. 10:0012:00 noon 12:00-2:0p.m. 2:00-4:0p.m. 4:00-6:0p.m. 8:00-10:0- 0 g Larl-Mag- k e 0 Magf-Mer- r 6:00 p.m. Friday 15, Mers-Nel- 0 s 0 With its Now, ask you, is that fair? Is it fair that we poor schmucks who bowl and fly kites and have nontechnical hobbies get left out? We can never brag about our leisure interests in terms that make us feel superior. S'oooooooo. And we can never talk about our temperature stability. I, for one, think it's high time some changes were made. Take people who chew gum, for example. They want to feel as technically knowledgeable and elite as anyone else; and if the gum companies would cooperate, it would be possible: "Chewzo, the new flavor intensivelow chewing compound! Only 26 CLp units (British) per stick (min. gum irritation level 4.6 ppm). Chewzo has an extremely ' delightful expansion ratio of 2.1:1 .h a flavor reduction rate of only 8.7 percentminute at 30 degrees C. Chewzo lasts a good long while. Try it today." Now there's an ad that make you feel like somebody.

The camera then pans back and the Teetho slogan appears on the screen: "When you've got a toothpaste that will do 25 on the French sliding scale (0 degrees C to 40 degrees C), you know you've got a heck of a toothpaste. Teetho." We simply have to face it: human beings like to feel elite, as if they have some secret knowledge or superiority. But then, who knows? Perhaps in a few years or maybe a little more humans will be unable to communicate except in specs. Things might be so complex (we might all be electronics buffs out of necessity) that everything will have to be considered in absolute terms, and we might well hear conversations like this: "Heya Fred, I heard you wife 18.234 CpC at 18 percent, hah, hah." "Nah, only 16. But DbD was up to 45.4 and her K ratio, with, of course, the standard reduction, 67.8 kg.sec., was getting out of line." "And her "Well, you know how that goes." "Yeah. 333.4 K5m, sec, 78 y.u.t; oh, and 99..." On the other hand, maybe human beings will never change.
