You are test a young technology . One Nox , as you work , a somebody with a case of the crazies comes in . They hate your new engineering . They intend it ’s making them sick . And they have a gun . What do you do ? If you ’re W. W. Bradford , you do something awesome .

Every new technology freaks society out . At the turn of this century , it ’s drones . At the turn of the last century , it was radio . If that does n’t sound like a middling comparing , study how much radio changed the world . For all of human history , there was no piece of entropy that could be pass without a physical connection between the sender and the receiver . all of a sudden , people were sending out inconspicuous wave and using them to give secret messages to each other . Many were shiver by the novel technology , but some were terrify by it .

One individual terrified by it was further agitated when a radio post was build just up the hill from him . It seemed Guglielmo Marconi had spent long time essay his wireless over various distances , assay to increase its compass and its truth . He had just built a post in France , and had applied scientist seek to call across the channel . That reason was not good enough for a local house physician .

An engineer named W. W. Bradford was working the radio receiver when this man do in . Bradford was given to realize that the man did not care for his experiments at all , that the homo was certain that the radiocommunication signals were making him disturbed , and that the man wanted Bradford to stop . If Bradford was hesitating about stopping , perhaps the human race ’s gun could win over him to comply .

Bradford smiled , and gesture the humankind into a chair . He announced that , among the people working with radio , this job happened quite a lot . Fortunately , there was a agency to push off the radio waves . Bradford could give the human beings an electric inoculation , which would do him to build up an unsusceptibility . As the gun was metal , could the man put it down before Bradford go for the inoculation ? The man did . To some this might have seemed a good time to thwack the man on the point , but not to Bradford . assume a bit of equipment , he had the man tramp up his arm and gave him a shock . It was a nasty shock , but afterwards , the man relaxed , garner his gun and the coin in his pouch , and walked off .

What ’s amazing about that is neither the man nor Bradford did anything more about it . A ranting human being kicked in a threshold and screamed threats at an engineer , the railroad engineer shocked him , and they were both perfectly happy from there on out .
