...but an and amazing and unique one.The above is one of the most famous medical images in the world--the "EKG", more properly the ECG--the electrocardiogram.
What it represents is the flow of electrical energy through the heart as the latter does its life-sustaining job. Nerves and muscles come together to create a magnificent work of precision, strength, and endurance.
What most people don't realize is that the electricity of the heart--of all cells, in fact--is exactly the same as the electricity that comes from the socket. It starts as chemical energy, whereas household electricity starts as heat or kinetic energy, but they both end up as moving electrons--electrical energy.
In a very real sense, we are one with the lightning!
YOWZA!
