Now that sounds scientific. And he has a white lab coat.
You reckon he's going to need any machinist in the production of
this wonderful device?

Just about the time you finally see light at the end of the tunnel,
you find out it's a Government Project to build more tunnel.

written a very long time ago (I have a copy in a book entitled "Random
Walks in Science", which I highly recommend). I'd guess it's 1960's
vintage. I can look it up if folks are curious.
Back around 1990, I was working on a laser communications system to fly on
NASA's Advanced Communications Technology Satellite (ACTS). We had some
blueprints of the satellite structure so we could figure out the mounting
interface. Buried in the middle of a large complex drawing was a little
note with an arrow pointing to some piece of the structure. It said "Nofor
Trunnion", and I knew immediately that the draftsman was a Turbo
Encabulator fan.

It's older than I thought. I found this on-line: "The turbo-encabulator
in industry" is the contribution of J.H. Quick, graduate member of the
Institution of Electrical Engineers in London, England, and was first
published in the Institution's Students' Quarterly Journal vol 15 no. 58
p. 22 in December 1944."

On a metalworking note, the 1962 GE turboencabulator version has tremie-
pipes made of Crapaloy (tungsten cowhide). See note under "Case" in
second picture at <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turboencabulator>.

I want antigravic marzelvanes on my next car! They're sure to reduce
