   I’m not clear on the size of his bathtub or the number of his co-bathers. I was taught (soon after it happened) that the “discovery” that getting IN actually displaced the same amount of water going elsewhere. He wouldn’t have noticed the level rise in a public bath; but he saw that as a way to measure the volume of an oddly shaped object.

    Twenty-five years ago, I taught two semesters of electronics (analog & digital) in our high school. We visited Radio Shack a couple times a month to keep stocked. We could repair our Mr. Coffee with a single thermistor. Today, the supply catalogs sell in quantities that make repairs more costly than replacement … assuming a repair is possible.
