His wife was the professor. He's the 'Stay at home welfare queen'.

They don't even bother looking at his age, after doing an online search and seeing what an ass he is. Why would they want to hire him, when good janitors are easy to find? Dimmie would have a better chance of being hired, than billie boy.

There's a peer group for third shift janitors with a chemistry degree, who dabbled in electronics?

Yes, but has only one member.

That's enough for a mutual admiration society.

It's hard to talk about electronics in a friendly manner when many here would rather badger (yes be a weasel, with what they don't understand that has been presented, rather then simply state they don't understand it or be quiet about it.

Maybe material presented by these mere mortals, is simply to complex for the simple minded. ;)

You hear some bells ringing somewhere?

I can understand the need for the age posting. There must be so much inbreeding going on in the families over there, carrying down the name through the siblings, that is the only way to keep track of the crimes committed from those cross eyed, drooling, window licking pony shows.

And we believe you. Being thought gullible is a small price to pay to avoid having the thread cluttered up with even more of your nonsense.

If I could have found a customer things would have gone rather faster.

No. The paper isn't the point - it's content is what it's all about. For me it's easier and cheaper to submit a paper to a peer-reviewed journal than it is to find a customer in the Netherlands and put together something that this hypothetical Dutch customer might buy.

I may do better in Sydney next year, but I'm not wildly optimistic.

Producing lots of designs at the rate of one a fortnight doesn't give you a lot of time to explore exotic ideas. If everything works, you are probably being a little over-cautious.

Voltage, current, part number? This is sci.electronics.design. If I need to know what the part looks like, I need to access the manufacturer's dimensioned drawing, not some soothing blather about a nice flexible cable of undefined length.

Ex-technicians don't know much, and do tend to devalue what they don't understand. It was not one but three degrees in chemistry - B.Sc., M.Sc. and Ph.D. - and if you want to dabble in the electronics for phased-array ultra-sound or stroboscopic electron microscopes you'll find it expensive, while I got paid to do it, and got a couple of patents along the way.

You must be thinking of Ken S. Tucker, but he claims to have gotten a Ph.D. in physics, though the claim isn't all that convincing.

As John demonstrates. Repeatedly. In fact pretty much non-stop.

Hint: don't design somthing until after you've found a customer.

Now you're making sense.

Personnel departments just aren't that clever. I've interviewed enough candidates that they've passed on as worth interviewing to know that they can't read an engineering CV, and I've got a few horror stories about wonderful candidates that they knocked back as "obviously unsuitable".

Michael Terrell doesn't seem to have ever been stuck with interviewing possible candidates for jobs, otherwise he'd be aware of this all-too- salient fact.

ha. Terrell still here? I don't see much of him, the filters work good however, normally I would find what ever you have to say distasteful but for some reason, this time, it does seem to agree a with me, as to the direction you're heading it to.

Yes, I understand. No one that we can think of is able to tower above you.

Well, I have and I can concern with your findings, that is to say, I am not siding with you. So don't get the wrong idea! PAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

I can say however, you speak like you could of been a victim of such an interview! It wouldn't surprise me. They did the correct action. ;)

Most small companies don't have personnel departments.
