He was known amoung his students for his habit of illustrating his lectures by heaps of slides (which led to the new measuring unit of 1 Fuchs = 100 slides per minute) and for his somewhat particular humour. PC-sensitive readers please abstain from reading on. One day, after a lecture about induction, he was standing at the exit with a group of students, discussing the subject, when he suddenly looked at a female student and the following conversation occured: "Now, young lady, have you understood everything in my lecture?" ... "Oh, of course I have!" ... "Fine... so... tell us... why does a transformer hum?" ... long silence ... "Well, you'd also be humming if you had fifty periods each second." Ralf
