slow eddy supports anyone who kisses his ass and doesn't question him about subjects he thinks he's an expert in.

After 9/11 things got very slow in Phoenix, AZ machining job shops so I decided to take a lower paying job in Tucson,
AZ building race engines which I have never done before. slow eddy has recommend a book that I had purchased:

http://www.abrasiveengineering.com/bksunn.html

I initially thought this book was very good and complete. When I went to work at the race engine builders shop I realized
how incomplete and wrong this book actually was. The reason is the author at that point was just like slow eddy...
book smart with very little practical hands on experience.

Interesting enough is that the person who wrote the book wife died long after he wrote the book. He finally decided to
open his own shop and get some real world practical experience. I talked with him on the phone years ago and he
admitted how much he didn't know back then and how much he's learned since finally opening his own shop.

With some of the new knowledge I gained I enjoyed talking with Bottlebob who had a lot of respect for David Vizard
who is a well known engine building author. It turns out that David Vizard had far more knowledge and practica
l experience than John Edwards did. The shop I went to work for owner has spent a ton of time with David Vizard
when he lived in Tucson writing books for HP. No doubt in my mind that the shops owner gained a ton of real
world practical knowledge working with David Vizard. HP Books was based out of Tucson, AZ.

This is just one example of how full of **** and how little slow eddy knows about many subjects he pretends to be an expert in.

Note to Ed: Banquer up to his usual nonsense here.

Thanks. I think I covered this round of Bonkers Bull**** in my last
post.
