Honestly Bill, if the Engineering gig doesn’t work out you should record audio books full time. You are a natural at this.

This is my Christmas holiday listening right now, and I just want to thank you for making it available. It’s a great story, told well.

A question/thought about the video - Splitting the magnetron makes intuitive sense, but I'm amazed it works. I'd think stacking/orienting the slices with precision would have been more difficult than machining the original design. It leaves many more surfaces to have thickness issues from corrosion, lubricant, etc. They must have had a great system for perfectly keying the holes to line up together as well. Seems like it adds more factors to consider. Though I suppose that's the point - more but significantly smaller factors. Got me thinking about it now.

as today..and as in the beginning of time..pompous fools cost lives...but i am thoroughly enjoying this reading..and the historical significance...

True. but keep in mind there is often a fine line between "pompous fools" doing foolish things and risk takers advancing society. In this case, however, i think we are in the former category.

I'd like to find a copy of this book. It's nicely detailed and I enjoy the descriptions of the ship's interior and operations.
