Turboencabulator machines. The original machine had a base plate of prefabulated amulite, surmounted by a malleable logarithmic casing in such a way that the two main spurving bearings were in a direct line with the panametric fan. The latter consisted simply of six hydrocoptic marzlevanes, so fitted to the ambifacient lunar waneshaft that side fumbling was effectively prevented. The main winding was of the normal lotus-o-deltoid type placed in panendermic semi-boloid slots in the stator, every seventh conductor being connected by a nonreversible tremmie pipe to the differential girdlespring on the "up" end of the grammeters.

I wouldn’t say I know better than anyone else but I’m certain I know as much about the car business as any other person here, I’ve spent 20+ years as a finance manager at either Ford, Honda, and most recently a Toyota dealership. I used to try to share my knowledge in the frequent car buying/selling threads but then I realized people aren’t really looking for good advice, they are looking for confirmation of what they want to believe. I still always read car related threads because the amount of bad advice and even misinformation has become a source of entertainment for me.

Other than Art, I'm an expert on vintage BMW motorcycles.

Even though I sold both the ones I had to send my youngest son to Germany for a year.

I've won four show awards with my vintage BMWs and was invited to be a vintage bike judge at Barber Motorsports Park one year.

Ok I am extremely fluent in BMW bikes from 1955 to 2005, more so in Moto Guzzi from 1972 to 2015, Laverda from the 70's. Mercedes and BMW cars from 1976 to 2017. Its my job, I like to be right as often as possible.

That's really cool. When you think vintage BMW, how far back are you going?

I've dealt with Seattle traffic for 30 years. Florida seems like a piece of cake in comparison. Nope

You'd think that FLDOT could figure out bridges, causeways, on/off ramps, etc. The struggle is real...

Your more right than you know, FDOT is not immune to the relocation of northern transplants inside the organization. Put it this way, if they were good they would still have jobs were they came from, but hey it’s job security. You’d be surprised some of the designs I’ve seen from P.E.’s, literally the least thought out and deadly traffic designs and signal sequencing possible some times. Almost like there trying to hurt people, not to mention Florida Man being the ever changing variable to any traffic warrant studies we do.

I will say this, the Tampa and Hillsborough county areas are the first areas I’ve worked in the state where it seems that the people really do care and are actively trying to fix things, most municipalities could care less and nothing you do will change that.

The biggest problem Is the amount of people moving in, population has double in 2 years in some areas but we can’t build roads fast enough to alleviate the traffic.

Possibly the practical application of geology during drilling operations. I'm constantly training masters level geologists in how to apply their book and field camp knowledge.

Maybe golf. I bet we have some good players here though.

@denverdan Interested to hear you elaborate. I'm a substation engineer myself. I'm our in house transformer expert, they're something I really enjoy digging into. I was reading through the thread to see if anyone had mentioned substations yet.
