Yesterday my d\_\_\_\_\_\_r e-mailed me again asking why I didn’t do something useful with my time… Like sitting around the pool and \_\_\_\_\_ing ■■■■ is not a good thing. Talking about my “doing something useful” seems to be her favorite topic of conversation. She was “only thinking of me” and suggested I go down to the senior center and hang out with the guys. I did this and when I got home last night I decided to teach her a lesson about staying out of my business. I e-mailed her and told her that I had joined a parachute club. She replied, “Are you nuts? You are 70 years old, and now you’re going to start jumping out of airplanes?” I told her that I even got a membership card and e-mailed a copy to her. She immediately telephoned me, “Good grief, where are your glasses! This is a membership to a Prostitute Club, not a Parachute Club.” “Oh man, I’m in trouble again; I really don’t know what to do… I signed up for five jumps a week.” The line went quiet and her friend picked up the phone and said that she had fainted. Life as a senior citizen is not getting any easier but sometimes it can be fun … ---

I don’t get this. But, that’s not too surprising, I guess, since I’m not an electrician. The single green wire goes into a bag with sand/sawdust/whatever it is, in it, and the weird WiFi symbol on it. The double green wire goes into a smaller box and is also not attached to anything. What does it all mean!? ---

The ONLY thing I got from this that could be regarded as amusing, albeit **very tenuously** , would be the ironic use of the arrow pointing to whatever is in the bag, without needing to. ---

> [@David](#): > > arrow pointing to whatever is in the bag, without needing to. That’s interesting. You saw it as an arrow, which it definitely looks like. I saw it as a WiFi symbol with a vertical line on top, although those lines are usually curved. Hopefully, Jon will explain it. ---

Oh, you’re both running in completely the wrong direction. To understand this, you must obviously have some knowledge of electrical engineering (and it’s symbols): There is soil/ground in the bag, and since electrical systems must be grounded for safety… > [@letsdothis](#): > > WiFi symbol ![grafik](https://forum-cdn.spyhub.tv/uploads/default/original/4X/9/2/6/926be1c61857dd133349fff6c61e022c4bb99774.png) Grounding Symbol is a bit different ![symbol-erdung](https://forum-cdn.spyhub.tv/uploads/default/original/4X/f/0/f/f0f6e5e447c357c7648dff4938fb39219674ed02.jpeg) as a conclusion maybe we can put it together as ‘wireless grounding’ 🤣 ---

> [@JonR](#): > > as a conclusion maybe we can put it together as ‘wireless grounding’ 🤣 Thank you for that very good explanation. I understand a bit more than I did before, but I have no electrical engineering experience (that’s a nice alliteration). So, call me dense, but why is it funny. (I have the feeling you already told me why, but it was over my head.) 😂 😂 ---

For PE, a connection to earth must be established. e.g. at a lightning rod. A bag of earth is also earth, but not “protective earth”, no matter what symbol you stick on the bag and how much earth is in it 😉 Dealing with the right words is an additional problem here. The German word ‘Erde’ is not just a single word in English, but e.g. ground, earth, soil… ---
