RE: Discovery in Texas changes pre History, and shakes things up a little!
and he showed you how to figure out problems and that's why you're so good, did he have degrees and do you have degrees?

I am a just living legacy to the leader of the band...
He did not finish his degree, They started a family instead.
I have a degree in EE (so does my Younger Brother). Of my five siblings (I am one of six) we have 5 degrees out of six kids.
oh man, that's a great song there but I don't remember who sang it and made it a hit.
Dan Fogleberg, That story always busts me up!
Dad taught my Oldest brother how to be a machinist. He was good enough with a Mill, that he was listed as a strategic asset, and they did not draft him to go to Vietnam, because he was one of two Men that could make a critical part for the Huey Chopper.
smithlabs that is so interesting! what did your oldest brother end up doing for a living, machinist making specialty parts?
He was the second best machinist I knew. They spent decades back to back on mills, trying to best the other. He was good enough to avoid combat. He ran machinery his entire life. I have him come over here and help me sometimes when I get backed up in the shop.
:)
ok so he stood at a tooling machine or whatever you call it, his whole working life? he is retired now and only helps when his little brother starts crying and needs help?
A milling machine is a souped up drill press that cuts sideways. It is possible to cut three steps into the flat of a sheet of paper with a mill. It acts like a router in metal. He was shop foreman, and kept about 50 machines and operators running, then he ran a mill when he was caught up.
He comes and helps his whiney Brother, when I need him, because I pay him well, ROFLOL!
