        Hello Tom, we were saying ! 

 TW> 1866 - French engineer, Georges Leclanche patented the carbon-zinc wet
 TW> cell battery

        He also had me going for a spin as I was trying to tuneup a
  Citro‰n 2 CV. That small car had a twin-opposed motor and being 4 cycle,
  to save parts and keep the price down, it only had one coil. It fired
  every revolution, on the two plugs at the same time. Firing at the end
  of the exhaust cycle did not matter much.
     
 Hey, this nice Thinkpad is in 
  full use again.
