ELECTRICAL THEORY
Positive ground depends on proper circuit functioning, which is the
transmission of negative ions by retention of the visible spectral
manifestation known as "smoke".
Smoke is the thing that makes electrical circuits work. We know this
to be true because every time one lets the smoke out of an electrical
circuit, it stops working. This can be verified repeatedly through
empirical testing.
For example, if one places a copper bar across the terminals of a
battery, prodigious quantities of smoke are liberated and the battery
shortly ceases to function. In addition, if one observes smoke
escaping from an electrical component such as a Lucas voltage
regulator, it will also be observed that the component no longer
functions. The logic is elementary and inescapable!
The function of the wiring harness is to conduct the smoke from one
device to another. When the wiring springs a leak and lets all the
smoke out of the system, nothing works afterward.
Starter motors were considered unsuitable for British motorcycles for
some time largely because they consumed large quantities of smoke,
requiring very unsightly large wires.
It has been reported that Lucas electrical components are possibly
more prone to electrical leakage than their Bosch, Japanese or
American counterparts. Experts point out that this is because Lucas
is British, and all things British leak. British engines leak oil,
British shock absorbers, hydraulic forks and disk brake systems leak
fluid, British tires leak air and British Intelligence leaks national
defense secrets.
Therefore, it follows that British electrical systems must leak
smoke. Once again, the logic is clear and inescapable.
In conclusion, the basic concept of transmission of electrical energy
in the form of smoke provides a logical explanation of the mysteries
of electrical components especially British units manufactured by
Joseph Lucas, Ltd.
And remember: "A gentleman does not motor about after dark!"

1842-1903
A few Lucas quips:
The Lucas motto: "Get home before dark"
Lucas is the patent holder for the short circuit.
Lucas - Inventor of the first intermittent wiper.
Lucas - Inventor of the self-dimming headlamp.
The three-position Lucas switch--DIM, FLICKER and OFF. The other
three switch settings--SMOKE, SMOLDER and IGNITE.
The Original Anti-Theft Device - Lucas Electrics.
If Lucas made guns, wars would not start
Q: Why do the British drink warm beer?
A: Because Lucas makes their refrigerators.
