hey check out achika's profile, then go to achika's site that is listed on the profile. I pretty sure it's listed on the site. If not, it's still a kick ass site to check out.

Positive is outer, negative is inside.


I'm switching all that over to images rather than text in the update (hopefully soon....I swear)

Did you get one of those universal adaptors? Usually, when positive is outer and negative is inner, there is a little logo and has a big circle and a little one, with an arrow pointing to the outside circle. If positive was in the inner portion, the arrow would be pointing to the smaller circle on the logo. Hope I made sense here, as I'm still drinking birthday beer and the alcohol which is positive (in my inner) is making me stop this post short to release the negative polarity. LOL
