Engineering is also different from research.

I like what Albert Einstein said to a newspaper reporter:

"If we know what we were doing, we couldn't call it "research"."

My ex-wife's aunt was his personal secretary for decades at Princeton. Her
house was full of "stuff" he gave her, awards, accolades, certificates,

No, I'm sorry to say and I apologize for dropping the ball on further
research and contact. I bit off way more boat projects than I can
chew on this winter and chewing on anything began to become a big
problem shortly after Christmas (you probably saw my post above) which
has really sapped my energy. I hope to get back to finding out more

paying for land storage and marina dock at the same time while not
sailing i(really, really, bad thing!) if I don't get an heroic mount
of work done in the next couple of months. And, I still feel like
****.

back into it, at some point, please keep me informed.

Thanks

I still think he was one of the earliest hams I know of to go on the air,
predating all the famous guys by years and years! Most interesting....(c;
