Wow

that kind of makes sense to me - excellent.

Also, that's the new thing for me to learn today, so I can switch my brain off for the rest of the day now.

it's kind of like van der Waals - electric energy between nuclei and they're electrons if you ever did that. just sort of inverted...

I could

try to explain quantum mechanical tunnelling. But its a bit shit and odd and generally pointless.

I can't explain tunneling

I can explain what happens. I don't think I'll ever be able to explain how an electron is just a probablility wave though

it was one of those wierd things that I

could understand clearly when pissed out of my head, but sober was just freaky. Never understood what use it was though

It has some predicted use

but for the moment it mostly just makes your computer wear out faster.

and it allows you to flow electricity between two chunks of metal that aren't gold or platinum. The thin oxides most metals form would be inpenetrable without it

I have never studied anything like this...

...but I always understand everything when I am told about it.

As soon as I try to tell someone else about it, I realise I didn't understand anything at all - my brain was just humouring me at the time.
