Remember, remember the fifth of November
Gunpowder, treason and plot.
I see no reason why gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot.
Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes,
'Twas his intent
To blow up the King and the Parliament.
Three score barrels of powder below,
Poor old England to overthrow.
By God's providence he was catched
With a dark lantern and burning match.
Holloa boys, holloa boys,
God save the King!
Hip hip hooray!
Hip hip hooray!
A penny loaf to feed ol' Pope.
A farthing cheese to choke him.
A pint of beer to rinse it down.
A faggot of sticks to burn him.
Burn him in a tub of tar.
Burn him like a blazing star.
Burn his body from his head.
Then we'll say ol' Pope is dead.
Hip hip hooray!
Hip hip hooray!

NO !
The EArth is  the capacitor
The elevated capacitance acted as a spring to bounce the electricity back int the EArth.
It transmitted through the EArth to it's opposite node and all points in between.

Geometrerized ?? Come on Dick.
It's "geometric".
It had geometric form  before and it still has geometric form.
It didn't morph.

WTF is a rail gun?

Is it like the rail vacuum from the 1970s?  I've heard of this silver marvel...
