Roger,
I have an addition we learned from Rick, N6RK in his earlier post.
STICTION   Another term for static friction  
(I thought Rick was being humorous, but I looked it up and it is defined as :
 "Stiction is the static friction that needs to be overcome to enable relative 
motion of stationary objects in contact." )
Rick,   I will never doubt your stuff again hihihihi
73,
Bob
