	It is a ~~tale~~ of confusion. Its characters possess drastically different information about the events in which they are immersed. Reliable narrators do not exist. Truth shifts, and the rate of change accelerates. The world convulses; climate becomes less hospitable to life; humanity changes the world once more. The very meanings of "humanity" and "the world" come into question. Answers are in short supply.		It is a story of confusion.

	Fans operating at higher voltages will require less current for the same work. Two-pin fans offer neither feedback nor dedicated PWM control. Three-pin fans typically offer a tachometer signal on the third wire. Four-pin fans add a PWM control on the fourth wire. PWM is a <b>5V logical control</b> that does not modify supplied power. In the absence of PWM support, some control can be effected by varying voltage (voltage ought be held constant for a PWM fan), but since a minimum voltage is necessary to avoid stalling, only the higher-speed range is available. "Low-frequency PWM" applies PWM to the power wire itself, but suffers from audible commutation noise, and must apply pulse stretching to the tachometer.
