I have lots of questions and I don't know where to start. Here are few that
I have:

What's this stuff about Tesla putting coils on a ship to make it dissapear
from radar? Did this actually happen and did it work?

 >>>>>>Actually, that is known as the Philadelphia Experiment.  It did
actually happen and is used quite
commonly today.  I believe the Klingons and the Romulans use similar
technology.

What's so special about high frequency electicity? Can't it still kill you?

 >>>>>>>>>DC, low frequency AC, high frequency AC, RF . . . it can all kill
you!!!!

What is a spark gap? Do I need one of these?

 >>>>>>>>>Basically an exciting looking switch.

Check out my website for more information:

Anyway, I am really new to this, so I don't even know what kind of
questions that I should be asking. My main goal is not to kill myself!!!!!!!
