Recharge the Idiom
Most people that watch H-I-M

enough times notice that there
are lots of mass (or custom
produced) items that have
never ever been shown.
H-I-M is in need of a slight

recharge of its idiom. The
changes are not huge, but
without change H-I-M will not
last.
This document was started with

only Iodine, Sulphur and high
power HF transmitters in mind.
Hundreds of products vital to

the functioning of the modern
world have not been shown!
More and more items kept

coming up, so there is this....
Fill the gaps!

AND : Have more narrators.

The Discovery Networks (in the US)
if it is not careful -- will end up on the
Ash Heap of History due to the
ongoing global economic crisis.
There are too many TV networks in the
English speaking world, and those that
don't actually help their viewers (in any
way) will cease to exist.
Households are dumping Pay TV as a
service, as there is no spare money in
the economic system for it to exist.
Pay TV nets in North America have
economic models based on pure
fantasy and perpetual neverending
copyright is no help to the system.
Origins of this presentation

Most people that watch H-I-M enough times
notice that there are lots of mass (and / or)
custom produced items that have never ever
been shown.
Showing how things are made is an old idiom,
dating to the 1920s. The idiom from the 1940s
to 1960s was everywhere.
In the US this TV idiom was practically
outlawed after 1980. The China Trade
seemed to make it so and the NFB shorts
were about the only way it could ever come
back. This idiom now has to survive a global
economic crisis, and peak resources.

Update the Idiom
Narration is important. Having the
same narrator all the time can lead
a viewer to ignore the program
entirely.
Canada has scores of people skilled
in narration [& in show biz] (& in the
Industrial production of goods) >>>
ALL must do comedy! Drama
people are not a perfect fit...
Keep your current narrators for
about 2/3rds of each episode but
have each guest do 2 full episodes.

Update the Idiom
H-I-M is in need of a slight

recharge of its idiom.
Narration is important, but having the same

narrator (or a small set of them) can lead a viewer
to ignore the program entirely.
The changes should not be

huge, but without change H-I-M
will not last.
Canada has at least dozens of people skilled in

product narration actively in show biz (or
Industrially producing goods).
Hundreds of products vital to

the functioning of the modern
world have not been shown.
Fill the gaps : entire sectors
have been totally ignored!
Keep your current narrators for about 2/3rds of

each episode but have a random drop in
person.
Have each guest narrator do 2 full episodes of
narration. Keep the best 3 segments. Put the best
one out. Remainders should be WEB XTRAS
Hulu, YouTube etc fodder.

Sun and Star Sensors for Spacecraft
Spacecraft navigation systems still need Sun and
Star Sensors to be able to know the spacecraft's
orientation.
Without this basic dead reckoning navigation
mechanism, most craft would be lost.
Ball Aerospace (known best for its Jam Jars &
Pectin) has produced these for 40 years.
The Ball Aerospace CT-600 series star trackers have
250 years of cumulative flight experience, with more
than 30 Ball Aerospace star trackers in operation.
The Ball Aerospace CT-611 solid-state (charge
coupled device-based) shuttle star tracker is NASAcertified for 100 shuttle missions.

Basalt Lava
Geologists actually need to experiment
with repeatable basalt lava on
demand.
The Syracuse University (SU) Lava
Project investigates the physical
properties of basaltic lava flows in a
controlled outdoor laboratory
environment.
The lava project uses crushed 1.1billion-year-old basalt from Wisconsin,
from one of the largest basaltic
province eruptions of the late
Precambrian (in places 90kms deep).

Tube to Multi Tube Converter
This technology has been around since transistors made
flexible tube interfacing possible.
Yellow Jackets Tube Converter
This model is a specialized, current-limiting / voltageconditioning adapter for use in most 20 watt to 100 watt
amplifiers which use 6L6, EL34, 6550 or 6V6 output
tubes.
Converts: Class AB to Class A operation.
Drops Output Power: 50% to 70%.
Converts most audio amplifiers with 6L6s, EL34s, 6550s
or 6V6s to EL84s without modification or rebiasing.
Safe for all common amplifiers and transformers.

Single Tube Stereo Amplifier
Bravo Audio Tube Headphone
Amplifier & 12AU7 Tube
It has been nearly totally forgotten that
tubes were made (1930s onward) that
could amplify 2 separate sources.
The great move to transistors and ICs
in the 1970s purged about 90% of all
existent tubes from common use.
The 12AU7 is one of the few survivors
as it is 2 separate amplifiers in one.
Cost ~50 CAD, Type: Dual Triode

Kiddy Sitcom Dubbing
Kiddy sitcoms are universally dubbed.
NOTE : This audience may not be able
to read, or is not interested in doing so
(as part of normal TV viewing).
SO : Subtitles are out of the
question...
Canada's kiddy sitcoms have been
widely dubbed, and should be chosen
as examples.

Hybrid Audio
(Moog or Korg) Synthesizer
Lots of these synths were made
during the 1960s to 1990s, but the
base technology evolved in the
1930s.
Only recently have Moogs been
made in appreciable quantities
post 2000s.
The Classic Dr Who series and

Lotus Seeds & Ginkgo Seeds (beans)
Lotus & Ginkgo can be found at Asian
grocery shops
The Ginkgo existed in N America but

became extinct some 15mya ago.
Ginkgo Trees originate from the early
to mid Dinosaur era. Now found
mostly in Asia. When harvestable,
Ginkgo seeds smell like poo...
Lotus Seeds need to be boiled to be
eaten, but are otherwise the Asian
dietary answer to the Hazelnut.

Aircraft Diesel Engines
Aircraft diesel engines or aero diesels have not
been widely used as an aircraft engines.
Diesel engines were used in airships and were
tried in aircraft in the late 1920s to the 1940s, but
never widely used.
Diesels main advantages are excellent fuel
consumption because of Diesel's higher energy
density.
There are some disadvantages compared to
gasoline or turboprop engines, such as the need to
keep the fuel from gelling at low temperatures.
The rising cost of avgas, and doubts about its
future availability have spurred a resurgence in
aircraft diesel engine production in recent years.

Lotus Root Products
There are about 15 common
Lotus Root products at a well
supplied Asian greengrocer
About 7 Lotus Root

products are documentary

From Vietnam to N Korea,
part of the Asian diet.

US NSA ANT catalogue
There are about 30 items in it that are H-I-M worthy.
The idea is that you can't show how these things are
made! Showing how they might be made can do.
However, these extra things must be done to make
the content re-transmittable outside Canada
Indirect NSA attribution is mandatory. Daft

secrecy laws (the world over) do not recognize
public domain knowledge!
Rename every ANT item with an analogous
codeword. BUT mention the original LOT & UNIT
PRICE.
Don't use original source material images, but in
narration keep about 60% of the rephrased text.
Note that all of these NSA goods can be
replicated in the private sector and can be
commissioned by anyone with Gold or Silver.

Tangy Tangerine
AKA Compounded Multivitamins + Micronutrients
Mammals need about 432 dietary elements, minerals,
vitamins, etc to function. About 90% of the global T2
Diabetic, Obesity and Chronic Fatigue pandemic is linked to
simple malnutrition.
This kind of dietary supplement has evolved out of the
concept of resetting the use of all vital elements, minerals
and vitamins (+ micronutrients) in the metabolic system.
In Yougevity's case about 150% for all of them. The
oversurplus in supplementation is to help reset wonky
metabolic processes caused by deficiencies and excesses.
Influenced by : Asian medicine principals.

Kiddy Sitcom Dubbing
Kiddy sitcoms are almost the hardest to dub,
usually as there is singing involved (and it
must be replaced).
Even though most kiddy sitcoms are broadly
written -- many many jokes simply do not
translate.
Even names in dubbing may have to be
changed ( example) : No Polish girl is named
Hope, Faith or Charity yet in the EN world
there are scores of them. So the joke was
rewritten in Moj Krompol Angol.

Quail Eggs (canned, fresh)
Some grocery stores in
upmarket areas sell quail eggs.
How these are mass produced
is not clear to me as these
birds are not like chickens or
ducks.
Some Asian markets sell quail
eggs in both forms, and there is
a small hatchery trade as well.

Tube rectifiers are still used to keep
antique or collectable tube radios
(and guitar amplifiers) going.
There are solid state replacements
for the Guitar Amplifier etc trade.

as these are not AMPLIFIER
VALVES.

HVDC (or AC) Connectors
These connectors are vital for
connecting offshore wind turbine
farms, and offshore substations.

Harp Guitar
The origins of this instrument
are not clear, but it could have
been used in Roman times.
Modern ones have the modern
sounding box associated with
the Guitar instrument design
that is endemic to North
America.

HVAC (and DC) Power Cables
This really should be about 1940s
technology versus 2000s (not much changed
since 1980s).
1940s : YouTube (Power Lines, 1944, UK).
The impregnated paper, jute, gutta percha,
lead sheath(s) and armouring design for
150kva to 500kva cable has completely
changed. Rubber has been highly replaced
by Polythene and PVC.
2010s : Top Cable (Spain) has several
YouTube videos equal to the UK content, but
showing the use of modern materials.
Covering the differences (1940s vs Now) is
worth a 15m segment in its own right.

Magnesium, Vanadium & Boron
(dietary)
Type II Diabetics typically have a concurrent
Magnesium deficiency. Lack of dietary Mg
clearly is a health risk.
Vanadium has been known to improve the
Type II's metabolism. Deficiencies in V may
lead to one becoming diabetic.
Boron also has a nominal role in metabolism
These dietary elements are clearly not
appreciated or understood and it is not
clearly known how they are made.

High Power Shortwave (HF) Transmitter
These XMTRs must be Frequency Agile (5 MHz to
23 MHz) + have output powers of 100 kW to 500
kW. Max power offered : 600 kW
These transmitters must change frequency ~6
times per day to adapt to propagation conditions,
and run for 20 {hr/day} for weeks on end
AUTOMATICALLY.
These XMTRs are still of strategic value as there
are vast areas not covered by any sort of telecom
except HF or SATCOM.
Canada has no high power HF transmitters, as RCI
Sackville NB was demolished. CHU, like WWV
never changes frequency and is too low a power to
even be considered as an example.

Boxer Flat Engines
(motorcar, motorcycle and aircraft types)
A flat engine is an internal combustion engine with
horizontally-opposed pistons.
Typically, the layout has cylinders arranged in two banks on
either side of a single crankshaft and is otherwise known as
the boxer, or horizontally-opposed engine.
The concept was patented in 1896 by engineer Karl Benz,
who called it the "contra engine."
A boxer engine should not be confused with the opposedpiston engine, in which each cylinder has two pistons but no
cylinder head. Also, if a straight engine is canted 90 degrees
into the horizontal plane, it may be thought of as a "flat
engine", but this usage is not common.
True boxers have each crankpin controlling only one
piston/cylinder while the 180 engines, which superficially
appear very similar, share crankpins.

Stove Polish & Paint (1000+)
If you have a cast iron stove -and many millions of these still

NAPEIR DELTIC DIESEL ENGINE
(and Compound Deltics)
Simple Deltic engines were possibly first used by a

German saloon sedan after 1933 with Gasoline.
Diesel designs were designed for the UK Admiralty
after 1948, but adopted by English Electric for
Diesel Locomotives (c 1956).
Deltics have massive Torque vs Weight Ratio, a
typical 3 Tonne 18 cylinder @ 3300 HP.
DELTICs Ram pistons together to obtain Diesel
ignition and this saves tons of engine block weight.

allow VHF antennas to be
mated into modern UHF 75
inputs that most TV sets
have.
For reliable ATSC reception,
you need 2 for fade free VHF
reception!

Gallium Metal
Less toxic than Mercury, but
still dangerous to Aluminium so
banned from modern jet
aircraft.
Mercury refining from its
mineral form is well known, but
Gallium not so much at all.

Cow Bells have been done to
death but Bear Bells has
been totally missed!
Bears are animals that when
pissed can kill humans so
vital for the outback camper
(but not Australian ones as the
Koala lives in trees and avoids
humans).
How It's Made ...

Vitamin C & L-Lysine
Vitamin C is needed to prevent
scurvy, and most other vitamins
and minerals need it directly or
indirectly to be used.
L-Lysine is deficient in Tree Nuts
(Coffee, Chocolate etc), Fowl
(Chicken, Duck, Turkey etc) and
lack of it allows a virus to replicate
in your nervous system causing
Bells Pausey leading to partial
facial paralysis!

DAY CLOCKS
7 Days (168 Hours) in a 360 Rotation
Day clocks have probably been around for a
century at least. Commonly found on Amazon
and some clock shops.
These movements are unique in that the
movement is (2x7) = 14 times slower than a
typical 12 hour clock!
The day hand moves 2.14 {degrees / hour}.
How are these movements made AND
calibrated (and installed) !

Lugol's Iodine Solution

Pandemic in North America
and Eurasia
Lugol.com is the address of
a Montreal Island producer of
Lugol's Iodine Solution.
The H-I-M production
facilities etc are on Montreal
Island!

COMMUNICATIONS
RECIVERS + Transceivers
Comm Receivers (10 kHz to 1
GHz) were vital during the Cold
War as general purpose
military and telecom receivers.
A $40 = 35 = 32 USB
Software Defined Receiver can
do the same thing -- but can be
afforded by ordinary people.

Camphor Tablets
Vital as a less toxic alternative
to keep one's wool safe from
moths, and to otherwise give
clothing a pleasant odour.
Camphor comes from a South
Asian tree, and delivers a toxic
punch for small critters.

Anchor Cement
Anchor Cement, unlike ordinary
cement does not really contract
or expand.
This property of mass stability in
hardening makes it ideal for
anchoring wood, steel, etc
objects into the ground.
Mostly seen on PBSes This Old
House show for porch and
mailbox and post stabilization...

Ceramic Resonators (CRs)
CRs are cheaper (but less f0 stable)
drop in replacements for crystal or
metal tuning fork oscillators.
The technology originated in the

early 1930s, but took off during the
1939-1945 war.
Crystal oscillators were rationed
industrially (1938-1948) and
unobtainable for hams or
hobbyists.

Titanium Cookware
Titanium: Forks, Spoons and
Knives! (TOAKS )
Ti's unique high temperature

tolerance properties make it
ideal for cookware but the
metal is not cheap!
Titanium is very hard to work
as a metal, making the most
misbehaving of Stainless
Steels seem tame and
obedient ...

Aquarium Stones
Vital for aeration of
aquariums, these porous
stones are fed by the air
pump to oxygenate the tank.
Some seem to be ceramic of
some kind, and others are
real stone.
So how are they made?
(& THE AIR PUMPS TOO?)

Idoral & Tri-Iodine Tablets
Idoral is essentially Lugol's
Iodine Solution in pill form
with buffering to allow it to be
tolerated by the digestive
system. Tri-Iodine is essentially
the same but with one extra
Iodine source.
Too much Iodine in your system
will kill of almost all bacteria,
viruses and some yeasts /
funguss etc ...

Ferrite Material Metallurgy
Ferrite filter systems are needed
to passively remove RFI & EMI
from circuits and systems.
HVAC (& DC) Transformers

use ferrite cores to function
(RF transformers don't need
them).
Types : Ferrite Rings, Ferrite
Cores (clip-action),
Transformer Ferrite

Iodine Production
There is an ongoing profound Iodine
Deficiency Pandemic in North
America and Eurasia.
Iodine is produced via a Gas Well

process as well as 2 Seawater
Brine Extraction processes.
Seaweed.
Any adequate chemistry lab can
extract it from Seaweed!
Iodine Recycling must be shown!

RF Dummy Loads (DLs)
DLs are vital in testing high
power radio transmitters before
they are shipped.
Most transmitter sites have DLs
to allow for transmitter testing
without being On Air with the
XTR...
Power ranges : 5 Watts to 2.0
Megawatts; DC to 50 GHz

Reed Relays, Reed Switches
An electronic component vital to some kinds of
switching systems (but originated in the 1930s
in Russia; improved by Bell Labs, CSRIO, ...)
Some 20 common variations exist
Power range : 1/10 Watt to 5 kW
Size range : match head size to telephone

handset size
See FAQ (Taylor & Francis Group, LLC;
Reed Switches and Reed Relays and
Wikipedia...)
Standex-MEDER has related videos on
YouTube explaining their processes of
production of Reed Switching Systems

Vitamin K2 Pills
Vitamin K2's production processes to
render it to a pill are unknown.
While millions of people take calcium and
Vitamin D supplements thinking they're
helping their bones -- without Vitamin K2,
such a health regimen could prove
dangerous.
Without Vitamin K2, the body cannot
direct calcium to the bones where it's
needed.
Calcium (sans K2 & D3) resides in soft
tissue.
This leads to simultaneous osteoporosis &
atherosclerosis the dreaded "calcium
paradox."

Antenna Tuners
Antenna tuners are both used by
radio amateurs and broadcasters
(including utility stations, like
WWVB) to optimise Antenna
VSWR.
Antenna Tuners better isolate the
antenna from the transmitter.
(Power & Frequency) Ranges
300 Watts to 2.0 Megawatts
20 kHz to 1.2 GHz

Iodine Production (well brine)
There is an ongoing deep
Iodine Deficiency Pandemic in
North America and Eurasia.

Seawater Extraction

Seaweed, but industrial brine
extraction is how 99% of I is
initially obtained for use.

Dietary Sulphur Production (99.9%
for Humans, 99.7% for Animals)
Pump Well Injection (common in
BC, Alberta, Texas, Oklahoma)
Pump wells recovered Sulphur

from Salt Domes and other
structures for nearly 50 years.
Few still exist due to resource
depletion. GET PIX WHILE
POSSIBLE!
Sulphur via injection wells will be
history soon due to its global
resource exhaustion.
...How It's Made...

Garbage Disposal Units
These kitchen waste units have
been around for 50 years.
Only recently have some
metropolitan regions started
composting like Seattle
rendering the device less
necessary.
There are 1, 2 and 3 blade

units.
Each one is manufactured
differently!
So 3 segments of 7 minutes
hopefully interleaved over 5
episodes..

Iodine Production
An Iodine Deficiency Pandemic is ongoing in North America & Eurasia
caused by : Too much Br & F intake (exposure) & no dietary
supplementation & Recommended RDAs being ~300%+ too low

ENIGMA MACHINE
Emulators & Replicas
The Enigma Machine, albeit a failed
crypto system did keep many
messages secret in spite of its flaws.
Showing the building of an Emulator
(and the construction of a real one -you can commission replicas!) would
be of educational value.
Enigma A's switching maze is the
same as a classic Theatre Organ
keying up the scale.
Don't forget the maze theory!
...How It's Made...

Iodine Production (Seaweed)
Seaweed. The U Montreal
Chemistry Department can do
this process, or maybe the
University in Halifax NS.
Ribbon seaweeds contain

iodine compounds which can
be obtained by extracting
Iodide ions from seawater.
Iodine can be extracted from the

seaweed by heating it in air to an ash,
in which the iodine is present as
iodide.
The iodide is dissolved out of the
residue by boiling water, the solution
filtered and the iodide oxidised to
iodine using hydrogen peroxide.
The iodine colours the solution brown
at this stage. Isolating the iodine from
this solution can be done by solvent
extraction, followed by evaporation of
the solvent.

Inline RF Amplifiers, Coax
Inline coaxial cable RF amplifiers
make Radio & TV reception
possible for people in areas remote
from metropolitan areas.
Typical operation is from about 50
MHz to 750 MHz with 1.2 GHz
becoming more commonly
available.

NIXIE & VFD Tubes
Some 50 years ago Nixie Tubes were a
vital digital display technology. VFDs took
over for a while, and are still widely used.
Today LEDs & LCDs now rule as display
technologies
Nixie Tubes are used by hobbyists to

make digital clocks.
VFDs and Nixie Tubes are totally
different display technologies, with
completely different electrical
interfaces.
