I for one do not care if you are any type of engineer or not. I am sure that every member of this forum believes in free speech and supports your right to say (almost) anything you like. However, I am tired of your endless pontificating on subjects about which you are poorly informed. In fact, many of your posts lead me to believe that your primary interest is to engage in endless, pointless debate, no matter what the subject. Whether or not the debate has any relevance seems secondary to the argument itself. Much of your most recent post seems to be almost incoherent ramblings and makes me wonder if you missed your medication today. What on earth do you mean by "the men and women, of America, Britain, and Australia, who died beneath the waves" and what does this have to do with the current subject or even anything at all? If you are truly interested in Hogarthian rigging the subject is covered in detail on the WKPP web site. Why should anyone rewrite what has been said most eloquently by JJ, George and others? Since you have now posted a deadline for answering your unanswerable, endless, questions, does that mean that you will cease and desist when the deadline passes and your demands go unanswered?
