But it sounded like "they" might have been his employer not wanting the thing in the parking lot.


We posture as apostles of fair play, as good sportsmen, as professional knights-errant-- and we throw beer bottles at the umpire when he refuses to cheat for our side...We save the black-and-tan republics from their native [statesmen]--and flood them with "deserving" democrats of our own. We deafen the world with our whoops for liberty--and submit to laws that destroy our most sacred rights...We play policeman and Sunday-school superintendent to half of Christendom--and lynch a darky every two days in our own backyard.


H.L. Mencken, 1914

New Nah.. all the troops woulda Loved It -
place lousy with engineers, machinists, tool & die pros (who helped on some er, motorcycle bits, now and then.) I learned to use a milling machine! along with lathes and such, early on. Science as -- one huge sand box; make your own toys! (in between making particles go faster n'stuff, natch.)

but what with The Regents of the Univ.. + Fed contracts all over, lawyer-think was pretty inescapable. I'd have been just too bloody Visible, y'know? Had it not been thus, I'm sure that within a few weeks I'd have had the swinkiest Gyrocopter around - some titanium might even have been found in 'salvage'.


Of all sad words of tongue or pen,
the saddest are these: it might have been.

'Twas a nefarious plot aided by sloth, of course - picking Anon as the famous author. I knew Someone'd Google the sucker - I know I first heard it as a tyke, and it stuck :-)
