The usual word for it is 'envy'. One of the seven deadly sins, as has
been pointed out--just look at what it does to those suffering it. Of
course it's somewhat less bad than pride, which tends to afflict the
rich even more than the poor.

Perhaps she strikes me as beautiful because I know that she wants a
country where the individual is more important than the state. That

especially democrats. |

Anyone know if there is a psychological term for those who believe those
that have wealth are evil and wish to do them harm? I don't mean in an
economic or political sense but those that have some disorder from
childhood.
Two forms;
Socialist, being the least severe, often treated with behavioral therapy and
communist a more severe disorder and more difficult to treat,
electroshock therapy is sometimes helpful.
These treatments actually WORK on congress critters and the like?
[/quote]
I object to "shock therapy" because it's nothing but thinly veiled torture:
"Stop being crazy, and we'll stop torturing you!"
Thanks,
Rich |

The usual word for it is 'envy'. One of the seven deadly sins, as has
been pointed out--just look at what it does to those suffering it. Of
course it's somewhat less bad than pride, which tends to afflict the
rich even more than the poor.
It can also be a motivator (as most emotions are) e.g. "I envy him for
what he has, so how do I go about getting the same for myself?" 
[/quote]
No, classically 'envy' means my wanting it _instead_ of him, or even
wanting nobody to have it if I can't. Envy and pride (invidia and
superbia) are inherently competitive, whereas gluttony, greed, and lust
(gula, avaritia, and luxuria) aren't.
The other two are wrath (ira) and sloth (acedia). Interestingly, envy
is almost the only one that has the same range of meanings in popular
parlance as in theology. For instance, sloth isn't ordinary laziness,
it actually means giving up, i.e. giving into the temptation to say "Oh,
what's the use?". Temperance means self-control, not teetotalism.
Each one is a sin against one or more of the corresponding virtues.
Wrath <-- Charity (i.e. self-giving love), temperance
Envy <-- Charity, justice
Sloth <-- Hope, fortitude
Gluttony <-- Temperance, prudence
Greed <-- Temperance, justice
Lust <-- Justice, temperance
Pride <-- Charity
They're all sins against faith, since they involve placing a secondary
good (i.e. some created thing) in the place of the primary good (God's
kingdom).

Phil Hobbs

As I reduce the current in an LED, is there a critical current at
which light emission quits?
Or is it continuous right down into the mud?

Yes, but just where this happens depends on the part. There are usually
nonradiative things (traps etc) that have to be kept full before you get
good emission--which is why optocouplers have that nasty toe below ~1%
of rated current. It isn't the photodiodes that are responsible. (Don't
even talk to me about phototransistors.)
If you want a really dim LED, a low power laser diode run below
threshold is one approach--they're small, so the current density is higher.
I should do some measurements on modern display LEDs and find out what
their linearity is like.

I know you're kidding, but normal desire between husband and wife isn't
lust. (There can be lust even between spouses, but that's a different
matter.)
