I=e/r

Well, I depended on memory and misquoted the Ohms Law formula for determining current flow. The method and figures would have been correct, but the symbol I used for voltage (actually electromotive force) was not correct. "P" is the formula symbol for "power" which is rated in watts (volts X current). The formula should read: I (current)=E (volts) divided by R (resistance).

2008 isnt even over and I have already made 2 mistakes, actually 3 counting the time I told the wife to get back in the kitchen.
