Your'e emerging alright.

I’ve asked this question directly to humans and haven’t had good answers. I don’t think many people really do know. Google reference is not good on this point for some reason. YouTube doesnt offer an explanation of what happens inside a tube that I could find without getting odd vids scarily technical and not helpful.

And then there’s this amazing forum which offers incredibly smart people willing to offer their knowledge and be very helpful.

So this is my last hope

@emergingsoul 

You are really comical. You started one thread declaring (as fact) that tubes were better than solid state, and now you admit that you don't even know how they work. @mahgister is right, read a book!
