Instead of quoting wikipedia, you should have quoted the direct source. |

its not a ing research paper for a cure on cancer. if you think its wrong go research it for yourself. i know for a fact that what that specific paragraph is explaining is correct as its basic electrical knowledge. i dont know about the displacement of air thing but the rest of the arching stuff is correct. |

| Yes, it's still safe to use the microwave. The only problem a fork causes is the aforementioned arcing (sp) and the possibility of a fire. It shouldn't have any other damaging effect on the microwave other than fire. |

It doesn't matter what it's for. You should just get in the habit of quoting direct sources. It's kind of like remembering to wipe after a nice #2. |

oh well, I watched my stupid neice put it in there and I saw it in there, and there were no sparks, so maybe its not a big deal.
The shaft of the fork was plastic, with like a metal fork head coming out of it, so maybe thats why its not as serious.
thanks for your help guys. |
