Inaction and guiltmongering do nothing to help society. It is sad to see people who believe they are doing all the good in the world turn to these methods and use violence though convinced it is really peaceful. "Peaceful" protest accomplishes nothing.

ABSTRACT COOKSON‚ EDWARD JAMES. Development of the Metal Foam Electrical Resistance Heater. (Under the Direction of Dr. Albert Shih.) This thesis presents a novel concept using a radial heating element made from porous Fe-Cr-Al metal foam in an air heater. Electrical resistance heating has been used extensively to convert the electrical energy into thermal energy. An analytic heat transfer model is first developed to estimate dimensions of the heating element. Four prototype Fe-Cr-Al metal

No one likes to lose. A fight‚ an argument - or freedom. Peaceful resistance to laws allows people to exercise autonomy and publicize opinions. Because the act of resisting governmental orders itself requires freedom‚ any resistance contributes to a free society. Certain people are against the promotion of liberty for particular groups.
