I must say, that is an exceptionally good answer -- good both for experts and beginners.

No, because salt doesnt make water perfectly conductive, and a 100,000 volt bolt will break down any insulation.

Shortest correct answer:

Water conducts electricity, but your skin conducts it better.

Put baking soda in the water and it becomes VERY conductive. Stick 2 electrodes in and the charge will go around you and rapidly boil the water instead.

Because the data is compressed to reduce download time, and inflated at the host computer.

Imagine that you live somewhere that for every sentence, they they make you append "I love our great and mighty country and our wonderful leader."

If you had to dictate your work over the telephone, you'd probably abbreviate the repetitive part to "I love the country, etcetra."

Then when the secretary typed it, she would expand the crazy stuff herself.

Everything except purely random data can be compressed, almost always at least 50%. Windows expanded from 11G to 65G, so it was compressed to 1/6 he size.

Text can usually be compressed to 1/15 the size. One reason is that all the spaces can be replaced with a very short symbol (string of bits). Rare letters like Q and Z are replaced with a long string of bits.

If I may ask an out-of-context beginner question, I've always wondered why the nozzles aren't longer. Sometimes the pressure drives the exhaust up the sides of the rocket.

Compared to the Saturn V engine exhaust thrust, I'm surprised the sea-level air pressure even needs to be in the equation.
