Ahh, American, unlikely to spot sarcasm or subtle humour. Perhaps if I could have arranged for my reply to have played the Benny Hill theme and had scantily clad women run around in circles you might have recognised that comment for what it was? > >But seriously, Linthead, apparently you did not read the original >post either. I am not talking about a CHARGER, I am talking about >a SMALL CIRCUIT BETWEEN THE BATTERY AND THE BULB. I spelled that >out, you just didn't care to read it. Yes, I know but it's possible that the third contact is only used when the battery is being charged unless the body has enough smarts to disconnect the load or indicate when the battery gets low, therefore it made sense to mention the charger. > >And then there is that thing up there in the subject line that >looks like this "DISCHARGING". Similar to that but you used lower case for some of it in the subject line. > >> Good oh, so you do know how to use Google. > >Probably better than you, Linthead, and I am grown up enough to >call it something other than "Google".

If I'd used another search engine then I wouldn't have called it Google. >If you run around carelessly spewing half-baked >misinformation, I didn't, if you'd read what I wrote you'd realise I was pulling you up about being so rude to someone who tried to help. I actually agreed with you that it was very unlikely to be HDQ as that seems too complex to be used in a 'flash light'. > >> FWIW, that paragraph tells you enough about HDQ for you to >> realise it's likely not what's on your battery unless it's got a >> *very* smart charger. > >If you had read my original post, Linthead, you would know that I >am not talking about a charger. I did and I know you weren't, see above for the reason. > >You are much safer talking about anything but the subject, >Linthead, since you are defending someone who did not read the >original post. Perhaps. I just don't like the rudeness that some people exhibit to others who try and help with the best intentions. If someone takes the time to try and help why berate them? If you don't like the answer, ignore it or politely tell them. I generally find being nice to people gets much better results. You'll note I haven't called you names, used obscenities or otherwise berated you. > >> Season's greetings, perhaps you could let some of the spirit of >> the season infuse you with some goodwill towards fellow men? > >Happy Holidays. -- Clint Sharp

I didn't suggest HDQ was used in a 'flashlight' I suggested that if you Googled for the acronym then you'd find out what it meant and that it was unlikely to be. Anyway, enough, you've obviously realised you're wrong because you've resorted to throwing insults instead of the semi rational stuff you were posting before so goodbye. Killfiled. > -- Clint Sharp

What on earth would a flashlight use a communications port for? By the way... There is nothing obscure about the word "flashlight", Linthead, so stop quoting it. > I suggested that if you Googled for the acronym then you'd find > out what it meant I don't "Google", Linthead. And the results you touted did not spell out the acronym. Jack probably does not know what it means either. > and that it was unlikely to be.
