Hooking up in the dark at -30 with it snowing sideways, dealing with those stupid side terminals GM came up with, a battery mounted against the fender or the headlight bucket...It's real easy to accidentally arc out, hell I've seen a cable pop off on it's own and weld itself to the fender.

Zamler, Thanks for the great post last night, the children were getting to me  |
So now your story changes, again...What's a plasma have to do with what we are talking about? The arc would be high in current and low resistivity which would lower voltage. Still not seeing were this magical boost in voltage happens. It can happen whether the alternator is generating power or not so why would one not have a car running?
You have yet to provide an example of how a voltage boost, short or load dump is possible when standard jump starting procedures are followed and the system is in relatively good shape.
Thanks also for sharing your expertise on all subjects (not just those in this thread) were it is quite obvious you are the only person who has any knowledge or expertise 'round here. Others be damned! You're right and no one else could possibly have any proof otherwise. If they insist, they must be pricks or children.
Sharing your poorly formed arguments, calling people pricks while trying to disguise the fact that you have a vague familiarity of some subjects, but no real expertise in any of them and hiding behind wink smilies like you're holding back massive amounts of knowledge shows us just how much more mature you are.
My diagnosis: Passive aggressive, narcissist with a touch of Aspberger
So go ahead and address the first two paragraphs with your typical misdirection but I am sure you are eager to address the last 3 since now, I am actually being a prick. Before, I and others were just right.
