I am new here, but I have already created a wikipedia article that is already being morphed and changed into an even greater article! I feel it is a great experience to see an article just grow and expand, almost as if it is your own offspring learning to walk and talk for the first time untill it is self-sufficient.

Around my school I have a reputation for being the "Html God". I realized that was a fiercely biased statement due to the fact that not many people choose to learn the scripting anymore. It was just not fair, not to mention the blasphemy involved. I obviously demoted myself to the "html alchemist". 

Recently, I've moved beyond html and the power of javascript. I've dwelled in qbasic, shortly followed by visual basic and of course basic itself. I've been dabbling a bit into assemply language, but that's a whole other story.

===Music===

I'm fixated on the movements between the mid 1980's and the late 1990's. Industrial, Electronica, Grunge, Trip Hop, Hip Hop, and punk. I won't say find all music affable, because I don't. I guess everything looks good with retrospective eyes.

===I came up with this on the spot===

This is a hybrid of a scientific explination and an alchemic explination for the power source of automail.

Theoretically and logically if alchemy is powered using alchemic energy, which stems from each person's inner gate, then that same alchemic energy can be used to power the automail. In today's everyday mobile prostetics, limbs are powered by amplifying the existing electrical energy left over by the nerves via outside electric input. The same is true with automail as the way it is controled is also derived from the small current emitted by the nerves. 

Through the use of integrated circuits and motors, prostetics are made a bit bulky and less powerfull because of the materials and limited energy used. So anyway you put it, to achieve such automail performance, the automail's basic components must logically be created from alchemy for the type of effeciency represented. Such as the magnet to operate certain motors could be forged from alchemy to be more powerful. Moreover, I believe this in effect is used to amplify the signals of the connective tissue to the automail much like Ed's pocket watch amplifies his alchemic energy, although he really doesn't need it. 

Anything that has a soul has an inner gate as seen when the priest forges the revival of Roze's boyfriend in the second episode of the anime by using the souls of birds. 

So in theory, the same principle may be used to amplify the voltage of a person's nerves into the automail much like a strong magnetic field can amplify voltage in an electrical circuit (motors rely mostly on voltage rather than amperage anyway). Whether or not the user of the automail is aware that alchemy is the source of their mobility is not important. What is important is that it uses the power of the person's or animal's soul, later realized to be the inner gate.

And even though the first step of transmutation is understanding, the second step is decomposition through the use of alchemic energy, and the final step is reconstruction in which those atoms are reconstructed into something new. Ed states in episode 15 to scar,"transmuting in Alchemy can be described in having three steps. Understanding, decomposing and reassembling. You must be stopping the transmutation at the second step, decomposing." 

Why not stop at understanding? Pinako's dog with the automail may not know alchemy, but it knows it was missing a leg and now it has a new fake one. That I think is enough understanding to use alchemic energy in powering automail.
 
all in all... don't take it too seriously. It's a show, and doesn't al move on his own regardless of automail and motors and such? just pure alchemic power. 

Automail is much more about engineering and anatomical science than alchemy anyway.

It kind of makes you think if that was the real reason winry wanted to take apart Ed's state alchemist watch. (probably not)
