In our fields, an action potential is like the quick wave that runs along the wire when you finally get the switch to work for the water pump—one sudden, carrying spark. A synapse is the gap where that spark must jump to the next wire, hoping the connection isn’t rusty.
My own nerves tell a different tale now, a constant misfiring since those years spraying pesticides without a proper mask. The books say these signals are clean and precise, but in my hands, they feel more like a hailstorm—all jitter and unpredictable pain.
