I feel like we need to cleanse the timeline with a quiz. What is the resistance for a wire?

@drcaberry an ideal wire offers no resistance, but I don't have any ideal wire in stock at the moment. 22 gauge copper wire in 0.016 ohms per ft.

Yeah, it ain't zero nor infinity. (I also like my timeline dirty.) Is it, like, a 500-ft iron wire?

@tarheel @antares Yes but we model it as one of those numbers in circuit analysis.

Oh! Well, then! Context! (I think I'd have guessed 0 then, if I had to.)
