FYI - The Politician John 'ff' Kerry did not Die from being
"Choked" to his Death by a Wild Microphone Cord . . .

Wireless microphones have been around for a long time. You have to
go back to the early day s of radio and electronics to find corded
microphones. The ones you see on debates are dummy microphones, with
the cords cut off for safety reasons. ;-)
