I'm happy to step aside too. I'm also out on the road (rails) today.

Thank you.
Next question:
Some electronic devices have a terminal identified with a "k", what does it stand for?

Since L usually means an Inductor, I think K usually means a relay.

No, those are component designators (although I've always used RL for relays), the question is about component terminals/leads.

Open floor, but can I request something other than a sporting question ?

With respect, you could always have done that by posing the next question, having correctly answered the previous one.

Joseph Conrad?
That's right -- he became competent in English in the course of his time in the British merchant marine, which he joined as a young man.
As they probably don't say in Poland: panski kolej -- your turn.

Madrid to Mallorca
Madrid to Tenerife
Madrid to Barcelona
Madrid to Gran Canaria
My guess is that Spain still wanted to get to its Islands (and Barcelona)
