Hec, did you see the short-haired model story I linked to in Natter?
I did! One of the good things about being a Buffista is that Jilli will have a thousand eyes looking for bat related accessories, billytea will never miss an echidna reference and anytime there's a short hair trend I'll be alerted.
Think of it this way: any gear will make the gear it turns go the other direction, right? If a gear moves clockwise, it will cause the interlocking gear to go counterclockwise, and vice-versa.
So Gear 1, if turned clockwise, will make Gear 2 turn counterclockwise.
Except it's also touching Gear 3, which means it will also make Gear 3 turn counterclockwise.
Unfortunately, Gear 3 is also touching Gear 2, so it will attempt to make Gear 2 turn
clockwise.
Then you have a problem.
Then you have a problem.
And then things start going "ping!" and flying about the place. There may be fire.

And your mechanic will tell you a bunch of unrelated things need to be replaced.

thanks. I do understand it. I just don't really

It looked perfectly fine to me. I can't see anything like that unless I actually *see* it in motion. This could be why math is a problem for me.
I'd kill for a rate like that to NM. I usually pay in the $500 range booking way ahead.
hahahahahaha

Yes, I chose to live here, where Alaska Airlines is the only option and thus soaks us at every opportunity.
I looked at some of those fabrics. Has Jilli seen this?
And Raq, your hair is wonderful! shiny, sexy ... and gives you a different look. (Change can be fun!)

I can't see it in my head, either. I have to draw little arrows of motion on the rims of the gears. That one is simple enough that I can picture the little arrows and hold them in mind long enough to see the problem, but I have to be looking for a problem to catch it.
Huh. I can picture two of the gears turning in my head quite easily. Supposedly men are better at visualizing stuff like this.
