Hi everybody! I've finished DX two times and there's something I don't understand.
Q1: What's the difference between two "blue" environmental hazards?
OK, I know orange flame for fire, yellow triskelion symbal for radiation, green skull for toxicity, but there are two blue ones, one with lightning-storm icon, and the other one is spherical similar to a "lightning bulb" that you can see in many science museums. I assume that one is electrical and the other is EMP, but which is which? What's the difference between each other?
Q2: Stick and Stone (spoiler)?
[SPOILER]After I say Gunther's killphrase, he replied "I'm not a mach-", and JC replied "Stick and stone." Then Gunther exploded.[/SPOILER] I'm not a native English speaker, so I dig my dictionary up for "stick and stone", which says "every stick and stone" means "everything required for a building or construction." What is that supposed to mean? Was he saying "this is all I need to get rid of you," or there's something else?

"Sticks and stones can break my bones but words can never hurt me." is a common proverb.

Electricity damages your health, while EMP reduces your Aug Energy. Can't remember which one has which icon though.

EMP is the one looking like a plasma ball, if I remember correctly.
