One of the greatest inventions of the 20th century -- indeed, one of the
landmark inventions in the history of the human race -- was the work of a couple of young men who had never gone to college and were just a couple of bicycle mechanics in Dayton, Ohio This annoys me, the Wright's were not bicycle mechanics who blundered into flight by persistence, they were true scientists and self taught engineers who supported their research by selling and repariing bicycles. That is not the same thing and they should not be dismissed as mere mechanics. Don -- Wm. Donald (Don) Tabor Jr., DDS PP-ASEL Chesapeake, VA - CPK, PVG |
