The problem is not the physics of diodes it's the metaphor, "back to back," 
which in my meaning was two diodes connected in **series,** either the 
cathodes connected together or the anodes connected together.  Connecting 
the diodes in **parallel** would invoke "belly to belly."  Oh well, what's 
in a name ....?

hard also in his dealings with men.
We can judge the heart of a man by
his treatment of animals.
