    Jeff, you've never done anything. Please don't try to interpret things you can't understand. The Vietnam airlift wasn't that ASS Bidens retreat from Afghanistan and Iraq which took 2 days and left hundreds of American behind.

    Vietnam was a planned retreat that Nixon planned and not someone like you who doesn't know anything. All of the Aemrican troops where broght back as a reduction of force until they were all back including all of the civilian agencies and most of the
    South Vietnamese government who would have been slaughtered.

    Why exactly do you lie about everything?

    Where did the Air Force send me anything to fix for them? Is your growing dementia getting these sorts of answers? What dod Helicopters have to do with anything? All of the American vehicles were shipped back to the US along with all of the people that
    used or maintained them.

    US military was returned to the states via COMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT you stupid twit. And Bayaire Avionics maintained commercial aircraft.

    You entire life has been one of bad decision after bad decision. Do not think for one second that that is normal.

    an avionics technician in Oakland. Was that before, during or after you
    were in the USAF?

    Tell everyone here what you personally knew about Vietnam that you didn't
    get from Wikipedia?
    I was there and you were hiding.

    You were in guam, not vietnam.

    You know nothing
    about it and pretend you do. You would make a toad vomit but they are
    smarter than you and know better than to pay the slightest attention to
    you.

    You are the only person in the world that thinks that helicopters are transoceanic.

    The vietnam airlift wasn't transoceanic.

    You are the only one in the whole world that thinks that the
    American presence was 7,000 men in Saigon.

    JEff didn't write that. The links he posted state the following:

    "Although U.S. combat troops departed South Vietnam in 1973......Several thousand U.S. citizens remained in the country at the Defense Attaché
    Office at Tan Son Nhut Airport, the U.S. Embassy in Saigon, and
    consulates at Da Nang, Nha Trang, Bien Hoa, and Can Tho."

    "April 1975, the U.S. Air Force flew 201 C-141 missions and 174 C-130
    sorties and evacuated more than 45,000 people from Saigon, including
    5,600 U.S. citizens. Still, the U.S. Ambassador, his staff, and many
    more U.S. citizens and refugees remained in South Vietnam. They would
    have to be evacuated by helicopter, in an operation known as Frequent
    Wind. "

    Now I don't even believe you
    were smart enough to change ink jet printer cartridges. There is a reason you're on welfare.

    You would do well to read a little bit of history before embarrassing
    yourself yet again.

    I really wonder about some of Tommy's posts. He goes
    on and on about
    the period he seems to have spent at Guam in support
    of the B-52
    missions over N Vietnam.

    Our base sent people temporary duty to Guam for 90
    days and then they
    returned and a different group was selected but for
    whatever reason
    they weren't required to go.

    So out of a 4 year enlistment some of out guys served
    in Guam for 3
    months but Tommy's post are all about his service in
    Guam as though
    that was the only place he served during his entire 4
    year A.F.
    service... or maybe he was never in the A.F. at all?

    I don't know anything about how the USAF operated at
    the time.
    Presumably, it was after he had some training, possibly
    at Lowry AFB
    from 1961 to 1962 as shown on his online resume at:
    <https://www.linkedin.com/in/tom-kunich-22012/>

    I didn't know what to think until Tom posted a highly
    unlikely fantasy
    about how the USAF sent avionics for him to fix from
    Vietnam to Tom in
    Oakland and then back to Vietnam.  Here's something on
    that amazing
    claim.  There's more but it's late and I'm burned out

    I'm missing something here. The Vietnam Airlift was in

    Bayaire was in Oakland, CA. Did they fly the
    helicopters back and
    forth across the Pacific Ocean?

    More on Bayaire Avionics.

    Jeff, you've never done anything. Please don't try to
    interpret things
    you can't understand. The Vietnam airlift wasn't that
    ASS Bidens retreat
    from Afghanistan and Iraq which took 2 days and left
    hundreds of
    American behind.

    Vietnam was a planned retreat that Nixon planned and not
    someone like
    you who doesn't know anything. All of the Aemrican
    troops where broght
    back as a reduction of force until they were all back
    including all of
    the civilian agencies and most of the South Vietnamese
    government who
    would have been slaughtered.

    Why exactly do you lie about everything?

    Where did the Air Force send me anything to fix for
    them? Is your
    growing dementia getting these sorts of answers?

    What dod Helicopters have to do with anything? All of
    the American
    vehicles were shipped back to the US along with all of
    the people that
    used or maintained them.

    The airlift was bout moving people out of South Vietnam.
    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Frequent_Wind>
    "More than 7,000 people were evacuated by helicopter from
    various points
    in Saigon."

    US military was returned to the states via COMMERCIAL
    AIRCRAFT you
    stupid twit. And Bayaire Avionics maintained commercial
    aircraft.

    You entire life has been one of bad decision after bad
    decision. Do not
    think for one second that that is normal.

    Tom.  That's a really great example of you attempting to
    change the
    topic and divert attention away from your mistakes.
    There is nothing in
    your reply that mentions your airlift, the duration of
    the airlift,
    or your 4 years working as an avionics technician.  In
    other words, a
    random assortment of unrelated "facts".

    The US "military" did not ship avionics equipment 6,800
    nautical miles
    from Vietnam to Oakland California and back again just so
    you, in a
    commercial avionics shop, could work on military avionics
    equipment.
    How would they get their training on military avionics?
    What happened
    to working on Guam?

    Photo of the Bayaire Avionics hangar circa 1972:

    I would be interested in knowing which 4 years you worked
    for Bayaire as
    an avionics technician in Oakland.  Was that before,
    during or after you
    were in the USAF?

    Tell everyone here what you personally knew about Vietnam
    that you didn't

    You were in guam, not vietnam.

    You know nothing
    about it and pretend you do. You would make a toad vomit
    but they are

    You are the only person in the world that thinks that

    The vietnam airlift wasn't transoceanic.

    Even people who read the papers at that time generally
    miscategorize and misremember the Saigon evacuation.

    Or is your whole life a lie? You were never in the Air Force, you were
    never on Guam and you certainly were never in Vietnam.

    John, you claim that you were in Vietnam but never in what capacity. But I
    see no reason to doubt you. Even though it would mean that you changed
    basic commands from SAC to TAC and SAC NEVER lets go of useful people.

    So 1. Why are you lying that Guam was not classified as a war zone and 2.
    Why don't you include the airspace above north and south Vietnam as being
    in Vietnam?

    I was on at least 3 bombing missions to Vietnam in my 3 months of TDY. I
    even was in the AC's position and the Pilot turned off the autopilot and allowed me to fly the aircraft while over Vietnam moving towards the DMZ.

    Seems like you can't stand the idea that there were other people in the
    Air Force that have your number.

    So out of a 4 year enlistment some of out guys served in Guam for 3 >>>>>> months but Tommy's post are all about his service in Guam as though >>>>>> that was the only place he served during his entire 4 year A.F.
    service... or maybe he was never in the A.F. at all?

    The Vietnam Airlift lasted a grand total of 2 days:

    I'm missing something here. The Vietnam Airlift was in Vietnam.
    Bayaire was in Oakland, CA. Did they fly the helicopters back and
    forth across the Pacific Ocean?

    More on Bayaire Avionics.

    Jeff, you've never done anything. Please don't try to interpret
    things you can't understand. The Vietnam airlift wasn't that ASS
    Bidens retreat
    from Afghanistan and Iraq which took 2 days and left hundreds of
    American behind.

    Vietnam was a planned retreat that Nixon planned and not someone like
    you who doesn't know anything. All of the Aemrican troops where
    broght back as a reduction of force until they were all back
    including all of the civilian agencies and most of the South
    Vietnamese government who would have been slaughtered.

    Why exactly do you lie about everything?

    Where did the Air Force send me anything to fix for them? Is your
    growing dementia getting these sorts of answers?

    What dod Helicopters have to do with anything? All of the American
    vehicles were shipped back to the US along with all of the people
    that used or maintained them.

    The airlift was bout moving people out of South Vietnam.
    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Frequent_Wind>
    "More than 7,000 people were evacuated by helicopter from various
    points in Saigon."

    More of the same:
    <https://www.afhistory.af.mil/FAQs/Fact-Sheets/Article/458955/1975-
    operation-babylift-and-frequent-wind/>

    US military was returned to the states via COMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT you
    stupid twit. And Bayaire Avionics maintained commercial aircraft.

    You entire life has been one of bad decision after bad decision. Do
    not think for one second that that is normal.

    Tom. That's a really great example of you attempting to change the
    topic and divert attention away from your mistakes. There is nothing
    in your reply that mentions your airlift, the duration of the airlift,
    or your 4 years working as an avionics technician. In other words, a
    random assortment of unrelated "facts".

    The US "military" did not ship avionics equipment 6,800 nautical miles
    from Vietnam to Oakland California and back again just so you, in a
    commercial avionics shop, could work on military avionics equipment.
    How would they get their training on military avionics? What happened
    to working on Guam?

    Photo of the Bayaire Avionics hangar circa 1972:
    <https://twinotterarchive.com/
    154_N7663_unk_Oakland_Jul-1972_ejc_1024a.jpg>
    I'm trying to visualize cramming a B-52 into that hangar.

    I would be interested in knowing which 4 years you worked for Bayaire
    as an avionics technician in Oakland. Was that before, during or
    after you were in the USAF?

    Tell everyone here what you personally knew about Vietnam that you
    didn't get from Wikipedia?
    I was there and you were hiding.

    You were in guam, not vietnam.

    You know nothing about it and pretend you do. You would make a toad
    vomit but they are smarter than you and know better than to pay the
    slightest attention to you.

    You are the only person in the world that thinks that helicopters are
    transoceanic.

    The vietnam airlift wasn't transoceanic.

    You are the only one in the whole world that thinks that the American
    presence was 7,000 men in Saigon.

    JEff didn't write that. The links he posted state the following:

    "Although U.S. combat troops departed South Vietnam in 1973......Several thousand U.S. citizens remained in the country at the Defense Attaché
    Office at Tan Son Nhut Airport, the U.S. Embassy in Saigon, and
    consulates at Da Nang, Nha Trang, Bien Hoa, and Can Tho."

    "April 1975, the U.S. Air Force flew 201 C-141 missions and 174 C-130
    sorties and evacuated more than 45,000 people from Saigon, including
    5,600 U.S. citizens. Still, the U.S. Ambassador, his staff, and many
    more U.S. citizens and refugees remained in South Vietnam. They would
    have to be evacuated by helicopter, in an operation known as Frequent
    Wind. "

    Now I don't even believe you were smart enough to change ink jet
    printer cartridges. There is a reason you're on welfare.

    You would do well to read a little bit of history before embarrassing yourself yet again.

    Tell everyone when you were in the military, what service and what your eventual rank was. When you know nothing whatsoever, most people would
    keep their stupid trap's shut. Liebermann SAID that there were 7,000
    people in Vietnam and the "Vietnam airlift" lasted 2 days. You must be
    getting a queer horniness to give Liebermann a blow job.

    Liebermann, the numbers are clear - I got out of the Air Force in April or
    May of 1965 and within weeks got a job at Physics International. I was
    there less than a year before getting a job at Berkeley Computer Company.

    The spill that you think is a big deal occurred in 1986 and the lawsuits
    put them out of business and the same business was taken over by someone
    else.

    The OIL was CLEAN mineral oil and of no danger to bay wildlife unlike
    crude oil spills in the open ocean from commercial vessels without working radar hitting Oil Rigs.

    Why do you continually feel the need to demonstrate that you're so fucking stupid?

    You would do well to read a little bit of history before embarrassing
    yourself yet again.


    +1 Even people who read the papers at that time generally miscategorize
    and misremember the Saigon evacuation.

    At the time of Vietnam and conscription there were only some 9,000,000 men
    in the combined services. Of that less than a third saw service in Vietnam.

    Liebermann said that the the Vietnam airlift lasted TWO Days and yet I
    worked as the sole electronics recovery technician for all of the minor airlines in the entirety of northern California. Major Airlines like
    United and Pan Am had their own crews.

    A DC-8 carried about 300 passengers and a Boeing 707 less than 200. Less
    than 3 million military served in Vietnam. So just two flights a day of
    each would take 16 years to move that many men. And they ALL transferred through Guam. You know that place that John claims was a sissy place that
    only handled hundreds of tone of high explosives every day. Where ONE
    mistake could activate and detonate a 2,000 lb bomb. When they were
    loading bombers no one was allowed on the flight line but MMS (Munitions Maintenance Squadron). That was because according to John they were
    perfectly safe.

    I worked from 1970 for 4 years at Bayaire Avionics. It sickens me that
    people like that cowardly Liebermann or Flunky would DARE to make a single comment about Viernam or deny the CIA running drugs from the poppy fields
    in Cambodia when it was coming through Guam on military aircraft and the recovery crews would wear gas masks to prevent inhailing heroin dust.

    Exactly why are people that know nothing about that fucking war, that the THREAT of JFK to pull out, had the CIA assassinate him? Oswald made the
    mistake of saying to the camera, "I was set up" and somehow, oh so common,
    a nightclub owner - Jack Ruby just happened to be in the Dallas Police Department Holding facility and he just happened to avoid police scrutiny
    and was armed. He killed Lee Harvey Oswald who was a known CIA sniper and
    was condemned to death. Unfortunately he got a mistrial and a chance at a retrial from a competent lawyer.

    Who knows what he would have said. Then it was suddenly claimed that he
    had cancer which was KNOWN already to be caused by a simian virus. But
    instead when he still had time to sit before a jury, he died of a
    pulmonary embolism. Like the Warren Commission, who failed to notice that
    JFK was hit both from the back and from the front with two bullets (the
    second shooter on the Grassy Knoll) they failed to note that the Pulmonary Embolism was caused by broken ribs from a night stick clubbing. Why shades
    of Epstein where the cameras just happened to be not working or pointing
    in the wrong direction and the guards just happened to miss their usual
    check on high danger prisoners and he just happened to have an illegal set
    of pajamas that just happened to be strong enough to hang himself with.

    By the way, just watch the JFK shooting and you can actually see him roll forward with the Oswald shot and was then thrown backwards by the shot
    from the front which was claimed to be a "nothing more than a recoil" from
    the first shot. BS - his body recoiling off of the seat in front of him,
    would have been slack and slow. Not violently thrown back. Other unfired bullets were found in the car afterwards. Why didn't the Warren Commission investigate them?

    Jeff, you've never done anything. Please don't try to interpret
    things you can't understand. The Vietnam airlift wasn't that ASS
    Bidens retreat
    from Afghanistan and Iraq which took 2 days and left
    hundreds of

    Why exactly do you lie about everything?

    Where did the Air Force send me anything to fix for them? Is your
    growing dementia getting these sorts of answers?

    What dod Helicopters have to do with anything? All of the American
    vehicles were shipped back to the US along with all of the people
    that used or maintained them.

    The airlift was bout moving people out of South Vietnam.
    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Frequent_Wind> "More than
    7,000 people were evacuated by helicopter from various points in
    Saigon."

    US military was returned to the states via COMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT you
    stupid twit. And Bayaire Avionics maintained commercial aircraft.

    You entire life has been one of bad decision after bad decision. Do
    not think for one second that that is normal.

    Tom.  That's a really great example of you attempting to change the
    topic and divert attention away from your mistakes. There is nothing
    in your reply that mentions your airlift, the duration of the
    airlift,
    or your 4 years working as an avionics technician.  In other words, a >>>> random assortment of unrelated "facts".

    The US "military" did not ship avionics equipment 6,800 nautical
    miles from Vietnam to Oakland California and back again just so you,
    in a commercial avionics shop, could work on military avionics
    equipment.
    How would they get their training on military avionics? What happened
    to working on Guam?

    I'm trying to visualize cramming a B-52 into that hangar.

    I would be interested in knowing which 4 years you worked for Bayaire
    as an avionics technician in Oakland.  Was that before, during or
    after you were in the USAF?

    Tell everyone here what you personally knew about Vietnam that you
    didn't get from Wikipedia? I was there and you were hiding.

    You were in guam, not vietnam.

    You know nothing about it and pretend you do. You would make a toad
    vomit but they are smarter than you and know better than to pay the
    slightest attention to you.

    You are the only person in the world that thinks that helicopters are
    transoceanic.

    The vietnam airlift wasn't transoceanic.

    You are the only one in the whole world that thinks that the American
    presence was 7,000 men in Saigon.

    JEff didn't write that. The links he posted state the following:

    "Although U.S. combat troops departed South Vietnam in
    1973......Several thousand U.S. citizens remained in the country at the
    Defense Attaché Office at Tan Son Nhut Airport, the U.S. Embassy in
    Saigon, and consulates at Da Nang, Nha Trang, Bien Hoa, and Can Tho."

    "April 1975, the U.S. Air Force flew 201 C-141 missions and 174 C-130
    sorties and evacuated more than 45,000 people from Saigon, including
    5,600 U.S. citizens. Still, the U.S. Ambassador, his staff, and many
    more U.S. citizens and refugees remained in South Vietnam. They would
    have to be evacuated by helicopter, in an operation known as Frequent
    Wind. "

    Now I don't even believe you were smart enough to change ink jet
    printer cartridges. There is a reason you're on welfare.

    You would do well to read a little bit of history before embarrassing
    yourself yet again.


    +1 Even people who read the papers at that time generally miscategorize
    and misremember the Saigon evacuation.

    Concerning JFK, he was supposed to be elsewhere that day but a threat was detected by the Secret Service and the program was moved to Dallas. ONLY
    the security services knew that he was there until the morning of the
    parade so how exactly did Oswald know where to set up for a sniper shot?

    Close. It was to obtain a draft deferment. There's no such thing as "antidraft" unless you're referring to someone opposed to the draft.
    There were some other reasons why it took so long, but the deferment
    was the major motivation. For example, I had a part time job for all
    of the first 5 years and worked full time during two summers. There
    was also a problem getting into classes required for graduation. The
    colleges were overflowing with students doing the same thing. Seniors
    had priority for obtaining seats. I had to take some unrelated
    classes (i.e. tractor driving and tractor mechanics) in order to have
    enough units to obtain a deferment and later try to catch up when
    seats in my major became available. At one point, I was drafted and
    went as far as getting a pre-induction physical, but was able to
    convince the draft board that I should be allowed to stay in school.

    So after all that time
    in school you learned nothing at all

    Who are you to judge what I've learned? You didn't graduate from high
    school and therefore didn't have any college experience. By your own

    Liebermann, the numbers are clear

    Thank you for providing me with your expected conclusion. Please
    forgive me if I don't follow your game plan.

    - I got out of the Air Force in April or
    May of 1965 and within weeks got a job at Physics International. I was
    there less than a year before getting a job at Berkeley Computer Company.

    That would mean you started at BCC in either 1966 or 1967. I'm really impressed how your mixing of ways to specify dates maximizes the
    window of uncertainty. Do you do that on purpose or does being as
    vague as possible something you learned while "reading out" 4
    libraries in order to obtain the knowledge so that you could call
    yourself and engineer?

    The company name was Berkeley Computer Corporation, not Company.
    Normally, an employee is able to remember the proper name for their
    employer, but I'll give you some slack here because that was about 55
    years ago. DCC existed from 1969 to 1972. That would mean you
    allegedly worked for BCC 2 or 3 years before they were founded.
    Somehow, that doesn't sound quite right.

    Jay discovered a document showing your name on a BCC document. See
    document page 27 (distribution list): <http://bitsavers.trailing-edge.com/pdf/bcc/originals/Admin/BCC_A-11.pdf>

    The spill that you think is a big deal occurred in 1986 and the lawsuits
    put them out of business and the same business was taken over by someone >else.

    Something that put a company out of business is certainly a big deal.
    I watched a good company, which I helped keep their computers
    functioning, forced to sell out to a much larger company, because of E
    coli related lawsuits caused by one slob failing to hose down a
    vegetable truck.

    The OIL was CLEAN mineral oil and of no danger to bay wildlife unlike
    crude oil spills in the open ocean from commercial vessels without working >radar hitting Oil Rigs.

    Oh, now you're a marine biologist? Mineral oil is used as a mild
    laxative for livestock. I'm trying to visualize what the bay would
    look like with all the fix and mammals swimming around with diarrhea.
    As far as I know from some fast skimming, mineral oil is a pollutant.

    "Mineral Oils | Everything You Need to Know" <https://maverikoils.com/mineral-oils-everything-you-need-to-know/>

    world.

    "Although U.S. combat troops departed South Vietnam in 1973......Several
    thousand U.S. citizens remained in the country at the Defense Attaché
    Office at Tan Son Nhut Airport, the U.S. Embassy in Saigon, and
    consulates at Da Nang, Nha Trang, Bien Hoa, and Can Tho."

    "April 1975, the U.S. Air Force flew 201 C-141 missions and 174 C-130
    sorties and evacuated more than 45,000 people from Saigon, including
    5,600 U.S. citizens. Still, the U.S. Ambassador, his staff, and many
    more U.S. citizens and refugees remained in South Vietnam. They would
    have to be evacuated by helicopter, in an operation known as Frequent
    Wind. "

    Now I don't even believe you were smart enough to change ink jet
    printer cartridges. There is a reason you're on welfare.

    You would do well to read a little bit of history before embarrassing
    yourself yet again.

    Tell everyone when you were in the military, what service and what your eventual rank was.

    I was never in the military

    When you know nothing whatsoever, most people would
    keep their stupid trap's shut.

    Well, you certainly aren't "most people" then...

    Liebermann SAID that there were 7,000
    people in Vietnam and the "Vietnam airlift" lasted 2 days.

    He never wrote anything of the kind.

    You must be
    getting a queer horniness to give Liebermann a blow job.

    Jutelist #1. Repeatedly accusing people of being "queer". He's a
    closeted queer, afraid people will find out.

    I would be interested in knowing which 4 years you worked for Bayaire

    Tell everyone here what you personally knew about Vietnam that you

    nothing about it and pretend you do. You would make a toad vomit but
    they are smarter than you and know better than to pay the slightest

    You were in Vietnam? When was that? Before or after you spent your tour
    in Guam?

    And where did you do for the other 3 years and some months that you were
    in the Air Force?

    Or is your whole life a lie? You were never in the Air Force, you were
    never on Guam and you certainly were never in Vietnam.

    John, you claim that you were in Vietnam but never in what capacity. But I see no reason to doubt you. Even though it would mean that you changed
    basic commands from SAC to TAC and SAC NEVER lets go of useful people.

    So 1. Why are you lying that Guam was not classified as a war zone and 2.
    Why don't you include the airspace above north and south Vietnam as being
    in Vietnam?

    I was on at least 3 bombing missions to Vietnam in my 3 months of TDY. I
    even was in the AC's position and the Pilot turned off the autopilot and allowed me to fly the aircraft while over Vietnam moving towards the DMZ.

    yeah, a B-52 pilot would allow an airman with no pilot training to fly
    his plane...lol...sure tommy. Tell us another one....


    Seems like you can't stand the idea that there were other people in the
    Air Force that have your number.

    Liebermann, the numbers are clear

    Thank you for providing me with your expected conclusion. Please
    forgive me if I don't follow your game plan.

    - I got out of the Air Force in April or
    May of 1965 and within weeks got a job at Physics International. I was >>there less than a year before getting a job at Berkeley Computer
    Company.

    That would mean you started at BCC in either 1966 or 1967. I'm really impressed how your mixing of ways to specify dates maximizes the window
    of uncertainty. Do you do that on purpose or does being as vague as
    possible something you learned while "reading out" 4 libraries in order
    to obtain the knowledge so that you could call yourself and engineer?

    The company name was Berkeley Computer Corporation, not Company.
    Normally, an employee is able to remember the proper name for their
    employer, but I'll give you some slack here because that was about 55
    years ago. DCC existed from 1969 to 1972. That would mean you
    allegedly worked for BCC 2 or 3 years before they were founded.
    Somehow, that doesn't sound quite right.

    Jay discovered a document showing your name on a BCC document. See
    document page 27 (distribution list): <http://bitsavers.trailing-edge.com/pdf/bcc/originals/Admin/BCC_A-11.pdf>

    The spill that you think is a big deal occurred in 1986 and the lawsuits >>put them out of business and the same business was taken over by someone >>else.

    Something that put a company out of business is certainly a big deal.
    I watched a good company, which I helped keep their computers
    functioning, forced to sell out to a much larger company, because of E
    coli related lawsuits caused by one slob failing to hose down a
    vegetable truck.

    The OIL was CLEAN mineral oil and of no danger to bay wildlife unlike
    crude oil spills in the open ocean from commercial vessels without
    working radar hitting Oil Rigs.

    Oh, now you're a marine biologist? Mineral oil is used as a mild
    laxative for livestock. I'm trying to visualize what the bay would look
    like with all the fix and mammals swimming around with diarrhea.
    As far as I know from some fast skimming, mineral oil is a pollutant.

    "Mineral Oils | Everything You Need to Know" <https://maverikoils.com/mineral-oils-everything-you-need-to-know/>

    Why do you continually feel the need to demonstrate that you're so
    fucking stupid?

    No, but I do feel the need to shove your lying words back down your
    (virtual) throat. It makes me feel like I'm helping create a better
    world.

    There you have it from Liebermann himself. He knows exactly where he was

    John, you claim that you were in Vietnam but never in what capacity. But

    While overseas I never heard a mention of TAC or SAC, it was the 14th
    Air Commando Wing at Nha Trang Air Base when I was there, under the
    command of the United States Pacific Air Forces (PACAF) Seventh Air
    Force.

    So 1. Why are you lying that Guam was not classified as a war zone and
    2. Why don't you include the airspace above north and south Vietnam as >>being in Vietnam?

    I thought I asked you whether you were paying income tax or not - we
    didn't in Vietnam - a war zone - and you never answered.

    I was on at least 3 bombing missions to Vietnam in my 3 months of TDY. I >>even was in the AC's position and the Pilot turned off the autopilot and >>allowed me to fly the aircraft while over Vietnam moving towards the

    Tommy stop lying. Nobody sits in the A.C.'S seat except the A.C. You
    saying that the let you fly the airplane is so ridicules that it isn't
    even funny.
    As for flying on a mission I have heard that was done when it was
    possible that a technician could fix something in flight but I'm
    guessing that was a rare happening and the thought of a shop chief
    sending a half trained A2C to do the job is, again, ridicules.
    Particularly as said A2C has confessed that his usual "work" was to
    carry the tool bag for a competent A1C.

    In short, you have,once again, proved yourself a liar.


    Seems like you can't stand the idea that there were other people in the
    Air Force that have your number.

    I would like to knowe how you claim to have spent 20 years in the Air
    Force and not know that it was composed of two command structures - the Tactical Air Command and the Strategic Air Command. How could you NOT know
    what command you were under? Or were you the guy putting out the clean
    sheets once a week? That was a separate command that I didn't know
    anything about. With the end of the draft, the Air Force moved all of its people into actual military business and contracted out things like
    cooking, barracks maintenance like stoking the furnaces and sweeping the runways. So how could you not know what command you served under?

    Tom. That's a really great example of you attempting to change the
    topic and divert attention away from your mistakes. There is
    nothing in your reply that mentions your airlift, the duration of
    the airlift,
    or your 4 years working as an avionics technician. In other words,
    a random assortment of unrelated "facts".

    The US "military" did not ship avionics equipment 6,800 nautical
    miles from Vietnam to Oakland California and back again just so you, >>>>> in a commercial avionics shop, could work on military avionics

    What happened to working on Guam?

    I'm trying to visualize cramming a B-52 into that hangar.

    I would be interested in knowing which 4 years you worked for
    Bayaire as an avionics technician in Oakland. Was that before,
    during or after you were in the USAF?

    Tell everyone here what you personally knew about Vietnam that you
    didn't get from Wikipedia? I was there and you were hiding. You know
    nothing about it and pretend you do. You would make a toad vomit but
    they are smarter than you and know better than to pay the slightest
    attention to you.

    You were in Vietnam? When was that? Before or after you spent your
    tour in Guam?

    And where did you do for the other 3 years and some months that you
    were in the Air Force?

    Or is your whole life a lie? You were never in the Air Force, you were
    never on Guam and you certainly were never in Vietnam.

    John, you claim that you were in Vietnam but never in what capacity.
    But I see no reason to doubt you. Even though it would mean that you
    changed basic commands from SAC to TAC and SAC NEVER lets go of useful
    people.

    So 1. Why are you lying that Guam was not classified as a war zone and
    2. Why don't you include the airspace above north and south Vietnam as
    being in Vietnam?

    I was on at least 3 bombing missions to Vietnam in my 3 months of TDY.
    I even was in the AC's position and the Pilot turned off the autopilot
    and allowed me to fly the aircraft while over Vietnam moving towards
    the DMZ.

    yeah, a B-52 pilot would allow an airman with no pilot training to fly
    his plane...lol...sure tommy. Tell us another one....


    Seems like you can't stand the idea that there were other people in the
    Air Force that have your number.

    Every time you comment you show what an utter fool you are. A B52 flies
    easily. The PILOT is called a co-pilot in commercial aviation and the
    military equivilent of the "pilot" is the Aircraft Commander. While in a
    war zone it was manditory that both seats be manned at all times. So when
    the AC or Pilot left to use the head, the Electronics Warfare Officer WHO
    ALSO HAD NO FLIGT TRAINING AT ALL would sit in the open seat. But the EWO
    was a lot more vsluable at his station making sure that we could not be
    tracked by missiles.

    You know so much about the military that it is surprising you never went
    to the Air Force Academy. But I suppose they don't allow theives into
    their midst.

    Tell us some more about the great amount of nothing at all you know.

    Tell us Liebermann, why did you spend 6 years in college to get a 4
    year degree? You told us it was to get antidraft status.

    Close. It was to obtain a draft deferment. There's no such thing as
    "antidraft" unless you're referring to someone opposed to the draft.
    There were some other reasons why it took so long, but the deferment
    was the major motivation. For example, I had a part time job for all
    of the first 5 years and worked full time during two summers. There
    was also a problem getting into classes required for graduation. The
    colleges were overflowing with students doing the same thing. Seniors
    had priority for obtaining seats. I had to take some unrelated classes
    (i.e. tractor driving and tractor mechanics) in order to have enough
    units to obtain a deferment and later try to catch up when seats in my
    major became available. At one point, I was drafted and went as far as
    getting a pre-induction physical, but was able to convince the draft
    board that I should be allowed to stay in school.

    So after all that time in school you learned nothing at all

    Who are you to judge what I've learned? You didn't graduate from high
    school and therefore didn't have any college experience. By your own
    criteria, you're not qualified to judge anything with which you haven't
    personally experienced.

    and exited it with nothing more than the analog radio knowledge you
    had before going to college from your interesst in citizen's band
    radios.

    Nice word salad. Impressing sounding terms, but nothing intelligible.

    Bend over in front of Flunky and say "Please".

    You're probably expecting me to get angry and react to that comment.
    Being angry makes you happy, so I'll have no part of that.

    I'll just note that Tom has been stuck in high rant mode for several
    days now. I wonder what's triggered him. Did another crank arm fall off?
    Did Janet Yellen refuse his phone consultation? Did Trump pass him over
    for a Cabinet position yet again? ;-)

    Poor little Frank, with Biden's inflation eating iunto his retirement he
    finds himself not wanted at Youngstown. Too woke. The world changes but
    not Krygowski. Socialism is out of fashion.

    You are the only person in the world that thinks that helicopters are
    transoceanic.

    The vietnam airlift wasn't transoceanic.

    You are the only one in the whole world that thinks that the American
    presence was 7,000 men in Saigon.

    JEff didn't write that. The links he posted state the following:

    "Although U.S. combat troops departed South Vietnam in
    1973......Several thousand U.S. citizens remained in the country at
    the Defense Attaché Office at Tan Son Nhut Airport, the U.S. Embassy
    in Saigon, and consulates at Da Nang, Nha Trang, Bien Hoa, and Can
    Tho."

    "April 1975, the U.S. Air Force flew 201 C-141 missions and 174 C-130
    sorties and evacuated more than 45,000 people from Saigon, including
    5,600 U.S. citizens. Still, the U.S. Ambassador, his staff, and many
    more U.S. citizens and refugees remained in South Vietnam. They would
    have to be evacuated by helicopter, in an operation known as Frequent
    Wind. "

    Now I don't even believe you were smart enough to change ink jet
    printer cartridges. There is a reason you're on welfare.

    You would do well to read a little bit of history before embarrassing
    yourself yet again.


    +1 Even people who read the papers at that time generally miscategorize
    and misremember the Saigon evacuation.

    At the time of Vietnam and conscription there were only some 9,000,000
    men in the combined services. Of that less than a third saw service in Vietnam.

    Liebermann said that the the Vietnam airlift lasted TWO Days and yet I
    worked as the sole electronics recovery technician for all of the minor airlines in the entirety of northern California. Major Airlines like
    United and Pan Am had their own crews.

    A DC-8 carried about 300 passengers and a Boeing 707 less than 200. Less
    than 3 million military served in Vietnam. So just two flights a day of
    each would take 16 years to move that many men. And they ALL transferred through Guam. You know that place that John claims was a sissy place
    that only handled hundreds of tone of high explosives every day. Where
    ONE mistake could activate and detonate a 2,000 lb bomb. When they were loading bombers no one was allowed on the flight line but MMS (Munitions Maintenance Squadron). That was because according to John they were
    perfectly safe.

    I worked from 1970 for 4 years at Bayaire Avionics. It sickens me that
    people like that cowardly Liebermann or Flunky would DARE to make a
    single comment about Viernam or deny the CIA running drugs from the
    poppy fields in Cambodia when it was coming through Guam on military
    aircraft and the recovery crews would wear gas masks to prevent
    inhailing heroin dust.

    Exactly why are people that know nothing about that fucking war, that
    the THREAT of JFK to pull out, had the CIA assassinate him? Oswald made
    the mistake of saying to the camera, "I was set up" and somehow, oh so common, a nightclub owner - Jack Ruby just happened to be in the Dallas Police Department Holding facility and he just happened to avoid police scrutiny and was armed. He killed Lee Harvey Oswald who was a known CIA sniper and was condemned to death. Unfortunately he got a mistrial and a chance at a retrial from a competent lawyer.

    Who knows what he would have said. Then it was suddenly claimed that he
    had cancer which was KNOWN already to be caused by a simian virus. But instead when he still had time to sit before a jury, he died of a
    pulmonary embolism. Like the Warren Commission, who failed to notice
    that JFK was hit both from the back and from the front with two bullets
    (the second shooter on the Grassy Knoll) they failed to note that the Pulmonary Embolism was caused by broken ribs from a night stick
    clubbing. Why shades of Epstein where the cameras just happened to be
    not working or pointing in the wrong direction and the guards just
    happened to miss their usual check on high danger prisoners and he just happened to have an illegal set of pajamas that just happened to be
    strong enough to hang himself with.

    By the way, just watch the JFK shooting and you can actually see him
    roll forward with the Oswald shot and was then thrown backwards by the
    shot from the front which was claimed to be a "nothing more than a
    recoil" from the first shot. BS - his body recoiling off of the seat in
    front of him, would have been slack and slow. Not violently thrown back. Other unfired bullets were found in the car afterwards. Why didn't the
    Warren Commission investigate them?

    I would much rather have misspellings than, like you, false pretenses at knowledge. I can only assume that you and Flunky get along so well because
    you approve him stealing from his employer. After all, that is the basis
    of Socialism.

    of the first 5 years and worked full time during two summers. There
    was also a problem getting into classes required for graduation. The
    colleges were overflowing with students doing the same thing. Seniors
    had priority for obtaining seats. I had to take some unrelated classes
    (i.e. tractor driving and tractor mechanics) in order to have enough
    units to obtain a deferment and later try to catch up when seats in my
    major became available. At one point, I was drafted and went as far as
    getting a pre-induction physical, but was able to convince the draft
    board that I should be allowed to stay in school.

    So after all that time in school you learned nothing at all

    Who are you to judge what I've learned? You didn't graduate from high
    school and therefore didn't have any college experience. By your own
    criteria, you're not qualified to judge anything with which you haven't
    personally experienced.

    Just so that we're all clear on this - why were you such an utter failure
    in your career? If you were the least bit ready not to be the smartest man
    in the room who could never get anything right, you might have tried
    harder to find a job in silicon valley and you might have managed to
    achieve 5% of what I did. Maybe you can follow along behind Flunky and
    believe I couldn't possibly made the kind of money I have (With all of my investments moved into "safe" groups, I only made $50,000 last month. And
    that even before Trump takes office!)

    Your great pal Gavin Loathsome is going to take the money out of the
    welfare funding so that he can summport NOT actually helping the illegal
    aliens but in suing the Trump administration through his law firm buddies
    so that he has a guaranteed job when the voters kick him out of office.

    Remember, despite the failed Democrat strategy to pretend that there is
    such a thing as a popular vote it is the Democrats themselves who put into effect the "winjner takes all" strategy.

    So it is ELECTORAL votes that count now and not the "popular vote" that Democrats are claiming was so close. Trump won by a full 25% of electoral
    votes and now you're hearing the Democrats crying that we should eliminate
    the electoral system and go with the "entirely Democratic" popular vote. Remember that Adolf Hitler was elected with the popular vote which is
    EXACTLY why our founding fathers preferred the electoral system - a board
    of representatives is less likely to be swayed by the latest popular ideas
    such as mRNA GMO's being safe and effective. Which they said even after
    all of the animal test subjects were killed by the mRNA. Now we know that
    the three or four companies that opted to use the mRNA falsified their
    test data. Biden has forgiven them there sins as a Good God does.

    Nope, Hitler was appointed as Chancellor because his party was the

    More bull shit. The U.S. was originally "designed" to be a union of
    states and the Electrical system was designed to give each state
    election authority, in presidential and vice presidential elections,
    based on their population.

    Not quite. The electoral college was designed so residents of tiny
    states with small populations could still feel they had influence. That
    might have made sense in the early days, when former colonies still
    thought of themselves more as colonists than as members of a nation.

    A few weeks ago I came across an article talking about the last great
    effort to do away with the electoral college. The effort was led by
    Senator Birch Bayh. He convinced a huge majority of the citizenry that
    it was time to dump the anachronism. He got strong approval in the U.S. >House, but got filibustered in the Senate.

    The effort continued, but according to the article, two things prevented >success. One was that some Democratic groups (e.g. a Black political >association in New York, I think) realized that their influence within
    their state would be less likely to be effective nationally; and
    crucially, President Richard Nixon removed his previous strong support.
    Why? Because he got pissed at Bayh for not looking the other way at
    Nixon's own corruption.

    Actually, the EC still makes sense to the people of the lessor
    populated states, which is why Bayh's effort never had a chance and
    why, today, it's even less likely to go away. It takes the
    legislatures in 38 states to ratify amendments to the Constitution.

    Tom. That's a really great example of you attempting to change the

    the airlift,
    or your 4 years working as an avionics technician. In other words,

    The US "military" did not ship avionics equipment 6,800 nautical

    I'm trying to visualize cramming a B-52 into that hangar.

    I would be interested in knowing which 4 years you worked for
    Bayaire as an avionics technician in Oakland. Was that before,
    during or after you were in the USAF?

    Tell everyone here what you personally knew about Vietnam that you >>>>didn't get from Wikipedia? I was there and you were hiding. You know >>>>nothing about it and pretend you do.

    You were in Vietnam? When was that? Before or after you spent your
    tour in Guam?

    And where did you do for the other 3 years and some months that you
    were in the Air Force?

    Or is your whole life a lie? You were never in the Air Force, you were
    never on Guam and you certainly were never in Vietnam.

    John, you claim that you were in Vietnam but never in what capacity. But
    I see no reason to doubt you. Even though it would mean that you changed >>basic commands from SAC to TAC and SAC NEVER lets go of useful people.

    While overseas I never heard a mention of TAC or SAC, it was the 14th
    Air Commando Wing at Nha Trang Air Base when I was there, under the
    command of the United States Pacific Air Forces (PACAF) Seventh Air
    Force.

    So 1. Why are you lying that Guam was not classified as a war zone and
    2. Why don't you include the airspace above north and south Vietnam as >>being in Vietnam?

    I thought I asked you whether you were paying income tax or not - we
    didn't in Vietnam - a war zone - and you never answered.

    I was on at least 3 bombing missions to Vietnam in my 3 months of TDY. I >>even was in the AC's position and the Pilot turned off the autopilot and >>allowed me to fly the aircraft while over Vietnam moving towards the
    DMZ.

    Tommy stop lying. Nobody sits in the A.C.'S seat except the A.C. You
    saying that the let you fly the airplane is so ridicules that it isn't
    even funny.
    As for flying on a mission I have heard that was done when it was
    possible that a technician could fix something in flight but I'm
    guessing that was a rare happening and the thought of a shop chief
    sending a half trained A2C to do the job is, again, ridicules.
    Particularly as said A2C has confessed that his usual "work" was to
    carry the tool bag for a competent A1C.

    In short, you have,once again, proved yourself a liar.


    Seems like you can't stand the idea that there were other people in the
    Air Force that have your number.

    I wonder what goes on inside that empty head of yours? According to you,
    on s 12 hour flight the AC would not have to even take a piss, let alone
    crap. Those facilities according to you were just put in the aircraft for
    show. It certainly seems like you can't stand the idea that someone else
    that was in the Air Force has your number. A fucking crew chief NEVER flew
    on his aircraft and wouldn't have the slightest idea of what goes on
    during a mission, you liar.

    I do find it interesting that you are completely unaware of the fact that

    part of TAC. If you don't even know that how could you possibly know what occurred on Missions? And tell us again how the AC never took a piss or
    that there wasn't an Air Force rule that both aircraft control stations
    were not supposed to be manned at all times. Your lies are getting ahead
    of you. Crew Chiefs knew NOTHING about an aircraft in the air. Give us
    some more of your stupid bullshit.

    I'm trying to visualize cramming a B-52 into that hangar.

    I would be interested in knowing which 4 years you worked for

    You were in Vietnam? When was that? Before or after you spent your

    And where did you do for the other 3 years and some months that you
    were in the Air Force?

    Or is your whole life a lie? You were never in the Air Force, you
    were never on Guam and you certainly were never in Vietnam.

    John, you claim that you were in Vietnam but never in what capacity. >>>>But I see no reason to doubt you. Even though it would mean that you >>>>changed basic commands from SAC to TAC and SAC NEVER lets go of useful >>>>people.

    So much for your knowledge of the structure of the /air Force:

    In January 1946, Generals Eisenhower and Spaatz agreed on an Air Force organization composed of the Strategic Air Command, the Air Defense
    Command, the Tactical Air Command, the Air Transport Command and the supporting Air Technical Service Command, Air Training Command, the Air University, and the Air Force Center.

    More proof that you were never in the Air Force at all.

    Now we have Slocomb telling us that he was in the Air Force in 1946. That
    he had to LOOK it up to know that the fighter squadrons were a part of the Tactical Air Command. I don't believe that he was ever in Vietnam at all
    since MOST of the 7th Airforce was in Thailand where he retired.

    Of course most people would know that those other commands were supporting rolls for SAC or TAC. What's more, they were do limited that both the Army and the Navy had to form their own air commands.

    But our "extremely important quallified machinist Crew Chief" has information you never even knew you wznted, His bullshit is running overtime but you'll notice that he doesn't actually say what his job was for the Air Force support company. He may not
    have been qualified to drive a street sweeper up and down the runways of an airbase because he only took writeups and towed aircraft to the fueling pits.

    Close. It was to obtain a draft deferment. There's no such thing as "antidraft" unless you're referring to someone opposed to the draft.
    There were some other reasons why it took so long, but the deferment
    was the major motivation. For example, I had a part time job for all
    of the first 5 years and worked full time during two summers. There
    was also a problem getting into classes required for graduation. The colleges were overflowing with students doing the same thing. Seniors
    had priority for obtaining seats. I had to take some unrelated
    classes (i.e. tractor driving and tractor mechanics) in order to have
    enough units to obtain a deferment and later try to catch up when
    seats in my major became available. At one point, I was drafted and
    went as far as getting a pre-induction physical, but was able to
    convince the draft board that I should be allowed to stay in school.

    So after all that time
    in school you learned nothing at all

    Who are you to judge what I've learned? You didn't graduate from high
    school and therefore didn't have any college experience. By your own criteria, you're not qualified to judge anything with which you
    haven't personally experienced.

    Nice word salad. Impressing sounding terms, but nothing intelligible.

    Bend over in front of Flunky and say "Please".

    You're probably expecting me to get angry and react to that comment.
    Being angry makes you happy, so I'll have no part of that.





    Call it anything you like. You werer nothing more thanb a slimy draft dodger but God got even with you by turning your weak mind off.

    I'll just note that Tom has been stuck in high rant mode for several
    days now. I wonder what's triggered him. Did another crank arm fall off?
    Did Janet Yellen refuse his phone consultation? Did Trump pass him over
    for a Cabinet position yet again? ;-)




    I will just note that Frank feels very uncomrfortable when I keep making points. According to him Trump barely won when in fact he held a 75/25 victory. So I guess teaching mechanical engineering and all of the mathematics that entails doesn't allow you
    to understand the Electoral systen from which this land is governed.

    Frank, don't you EVER see how stupid you are?

    Still having trouble attracting attention to your numerous problems?
    Insulting your audience, lying and then changing the topic, is not a
    good way to start a discussion. As I mentioned:
    "Being angry makes you happy, so I'll have no part of that".

    We both made our life's decisions at about the same age and time. I'm
    not totally satisfied that they were the best choices, but I don't
    regret my decisions and am fairly satisfied with the results. That
    doesn't seem to be the case with your choices. Berating me cannot
    repair the damage you've done to yourself.

    Most people that were capable of simple arithmatic would have left that
    alone. But not Flunky, he has to demonstrate why his is called Flunky.
    312/226 = 1.36 Or Trump had a 36% lead DESPITE massive election fraud in California and New York. In California they stopped counting the votes in
    front of the voter so that they could toss out Republican votes. But fear
    not, Krygowski is even better with understanding the American election
    system. It is his belief that California and New York should be able to
    elect and President and to hell with the rest of the country. I suppose he
    is angry that the people of Ohio preferred Trump to Harris. No sane person would vote for Harris hence, in California and New York, there was massive election fraud.

    I'm trying to visualize cramming a B-52 into that hangar.

    I would be interested in knowing which 4 years you worked for

    You were in Vietnam? When was that? Before or after you spent your
    tour in Guam?

    And where did you do for the other 3 years and some months that you
    were in the Air Force?

    Or is your whole life a lie? You were never in the Air Force, you
    were never on Guam and you certainly were never in Vietnam.

    John, you claim that you were in Vietnam but never in what capacity.
    But I see no reason to doubt you. Even though it would mean that you
    changed basic commands from SAC to TAC and SAC NEVER lets go of
    useful people.

    So 1. Why are you lying that Guam was not classified as a war zone
    and 2. Why don't you include the airspace above north and south
    Vietnam as being in Vietnam?

    I was on at least 3 bombing missions to Vietnam in my 3 months of
    TDY. I even was in the AC's position and the Pilot turned off the
    autopilot and allowed me to fly the aircraft while over Vietnam
    moving towards the DMZ.

    yeah, a B-52 pilot would allow an airman with no pilot training to fly
    his plane...lol...sure tommy. Tell us another one....


    Seems like you can't stand the idea that there were other people in
    the Air Force that have your number.

    Every time you comment you show what an utter fool you are. A B52 flies >>easily. The PILOT is called a co-pilot in commercial aviation and the >>military equivilent of the "pilot" is the Aircraft Commander. While in a >>war zone it was manditory that both seats be manned at all times. So
    when the AC or Pilot left to use the head, the Electronics Warfare
    Officer WHO ALSO HAD NO FLIGT TRAINING AT ALL would sit in the open
    seat. But the EWO was a lot more vsluable at his station making sure
    that we could not be tracked by missiles.

    More proof that you never flew on a B-52 and may never in the Air Force
    at all.

    Multi engine airplanes have two "pilots". The guy in the Left Hand seat
    is the Aircraft Commander and is equal of a Navy "Captain" in that the entire airplane and all in it are under his command. And whether he is sitting in his seat or gets up to pee he is always the sole commander of
    the aircraft and the your assertion that some untrained A2c or even
    another member of the crew would sit in his seat is again ridicules, if
    no other reason that what they do there? They have no idea of that the
    AC does in flight.

    Your arguments seem more and more to indicate that you don't know what
    you are talking and may not even have been in the Air Force at all.
    Were you one of those that ran away to Canada to avoid the draft?


    John, you were a CREW CHIEF. The only thing you did was take writeups by
    the crew, distribute those to the proper maiuntenance shops and to the
    aircraft to the refueling pits. Quit pretending that you actually know
    ANYTHING about the operation of the aircraft.

    Most people that were capable of simple arithmatic would have left that alone. But not Flunky, he has to demonstrate why his is called Flunky. 312/226 = 1.36 Or Trump had a 36% lead DESPITE massive election fraud in California and New York. In California they stopped counting the votes in front of the voter so that they could toss out Republican votes. But fear not, Krygowski is even better with understanding the American election system. It is his belief that California and New York should be able to
    elect and President and to hell with the rest of the country. I suppose he
    is angry that the people of Ohio preferred Trump to Harris. No sane person would vote for Harris hence, in California and New York, there was massive election fraud.



    I get 57.9%, not 75%.

    The man whose bewildering linkedin reference claims he's 'capable of

    I can only gaze with aw on a school that teaches ". tractor driving
    and tractor mechanics". Perhaps I should apply for a degree as I was
    driving a tractor when I was 12 years old.

    The college was Cal Poly Pomona.
    <https://www.cpp.edu>
    Originally, it was an agricultural college. When the space race
    arrived in the 1960's, someone decided that there was more happening
    in engineering, so they added an engineering school. That was also
    the Vietnam War era, where students were looking for a way to avoid
    being drafted into military service. Engineering offered a deferment
    while agriculture did not.

    Getting a seat in undergraduate engineering classes was difficult. The
    colleges were packed. It was required to take 15 units per quarter of
    relevant classes in order obtain a deferment which was also difficult. Fortunately, there were some marginal classes which were deemed
    "useful" which including various mechanical trades. Tractor driving
    and mechanics were agricultural classes, but were accepted as elective
    classes for engineering. I took advantage of these classes.

    Cal Poly also enters and builds a "rose float" for the annual New
    Years Rose Parade in Pasadena, CA. <https://www.google.com/search?q=cal+poly+rose+parade+float&udm=2> <https://magazine.calpoly.edu/spring-summer-2024/75-years-of-rose-float/> <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cal_Poly_Universities_Rose_Float> <https://www.facebook.com/rosefloat/photos>

    The Cal Poly entry was built in the school tractor barn and decorated
    with flowers at the Rose Palace in Pasadena. This is a photo of me at
    work:
    <https://www.learnbydestroying.com/jeffl/pics/jeffl/RoseFloat01.jpg>
    I worked on the electrically powered float animation, which at the
    time was powered by windshield wiper motors. Also the heavily
    modified gasoline tractor engine that powered the float and hydraulic
    pumps. I also rode inside the float in 1970 and 1971. The photo
    above was where I was sitting, operating the switches that ran the
    electrical powered animation.
    <https://www.rosefloat.org/floats-from-1971-1980> <https://www.rosefloat.org/floats-from-1961-1970>

    Although it didn't seem useful at the time, I learned many useful
    things about the practical parts of engineering working on the rose
    floats, such as gas and stick welding. There were other marginal
    college activities that eventually proved useful, such as helping
    build a Yellow Cab (taxi) that ran in the Baja 500. It survived the
    first 100 miles until the rear axle died.

    I had a good time and I think you would have also enjoyed the
    experience. However, it's probably too late, not because you're too
    old but because the college has changed. Some time after I graduated,
    the bureaucracy decided to have the college accredited. The process
    involved a review of the curriculum by a committee of academics. All
    the useful classes were removed and replaced with mostly useless
    general education programs. When I attended Cal Poly Pomona, a large
    number of laboratory classes were required for an engineering degree.
    The school mottos was "Learn By Doing". It was engineering where I
    arrived clean and left covered in mud, oil, dirt, slag, turning and occasionally some bruises. Most of the labs disappeared after
    accreditation.

    It's interesting that you found that to be the case. Our program has
    always been accredited by ABET, plus having to meet standards set by the
    state of Ohio, the university administration and internal requirements
    of the Faculty Senate.

    IME, the battle usually came down to ABET vs. Faculty Senate. Each
    academic department represented in the Senate felt like its topic was
    critical for all university graduates, and wanted to make its courses mandatory. But the state put a lid on the total number of hours required
    for graduation, and ABET had strong minimums for various technical topics.

    We were able to argue effectively that no, we can't mandate yet another
    "soft" course (Communications IV, History of the Balkans, 17th Century
    Scottish Poetry or whatever) without losing accreditation. Heck, we once
    shot down a proposed Physics department mandate for Quantum Physics. Too
    many hours in our curriculum, and that topic just isn't practical for
    most engineers.

    If there were any curriculum negotiations while I was attending Cal
    Poly Pomona, I didn't attend them or hear about them. Not much I can
    say about the accreditation process except that I didn't like the
    result when I visited Cal Poly. As I recall, accreditation was
    announced after I had graduated and was gone. Accreditation was
    managed by the WSCUC:
    <https://www.wscuc.org>

    However, that unearthed a problem. My diploma says that I graduated
    on Jun 18, 1971: <https://www.learnbydestroying.com/jeffl/crud/diploma-jeffl.jpg>
    However, the WASC[1] documents for accrediting Cal Poly Pomona show
    1970, at which time I was still attending college. <https://www.wscuc.org/institutions/california-state-polytechnic-university-pomona/>

    The school had changed its official name from "California State
    Polytechnic College, Pomona" to "California State Polytechnic
    University, Pomona" in 1972. Therefore the older name is correct for
    1971 and 1972:
    <https://libguides.library.cpp.edu/c.php?g=686944&p=5013734>
    "The school changed its name to California State Polytechnic College, Kellogg-Voorhis to emphasize its connection to the CSC system and,
    having grown large enough to be granted university status, adopted its
    final name, California State Polytechnic University, Pomona, in 1972."

    Therefore, I apparently was mistaken about the timing (or just didn't
    notice any changes in curriculum). I was not affected because at the
    time, I was in my senior year and the replacement of the shop classes
    were several years behind me. I also managed to graduate in the one
    year when the college name was changing[2].

    [1] The WASC and WSCUC organizations merged a few years ago.

    [2] To maximize confusion, Cal Poly changed from the semester system
    to the quarter system just before I arrived at Cal Poly in Sept 1968.
    They changed back to the semester system in fall of 2018. <https://www.cpp.edu/semester/index.shtml>

    It was not accredited by ABET before the university became a state
    school. It was not accredited by ABET until after it first applied for accreditation, which was before I began teaching there.

    But it's been accredited by ABET ever since, and at least a couple times
    we were granted the longest possible (six year) accreditation at a time
    that only ten percent of similar programs got that recognition.

    If you're trying to be pedantic, quoting "forever" also seems "just a
    little weird." Note that the word "forever" was not used in my post.

    But your corrections are as welcome as ever! I do keep trying to do my
    best. ;-)

    I took "always" as synonymous with "forever", a minor shade of meaning.
    You on the other hand, claimed that the program you taught in was
    "always" accredited, when in fact you meant that it was accredited since
    some time that could well have been after Mr. Liebermann graduated
    university.

    Most people that were capable of simple arithmatic would have left that alone. But not Flunky, he has to demonstrate why his is called Flunky. 312/226 = 1.36 Or Trump had a 36% lead

    Most people capable of simple arithmetic know that is not how one
    derives percentages of a total.

    DESPITE massive election fraud in
    California and New York.

    That's a lie

    In California they stopped counting the votes in
    front of the voter so that they could toss out Republican votes.

    That's a lie

    <snipped incoherent babble>

    The man whose bewildering linkedin reference claims he's 'capable of
    applying complex calculus' first claims a vote result of 312/226 is
    75%/25%, then claims it's 36%.

    Go ahead tommy, this should be childs play for a software genius like
    you - show us the work of how you got 75%/25% from 312/226




    Tell us all how you know what happens in California? Is this more of your expert advice on friction shifting?

    It's interesting that you found that to be the case. Our program has >>>>>> always been accredited by ABET, plus having to meet standards set by >>>>> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    How is that possible? Don't you have to actually have a running
    program
    before seeking accreditation? If, on the other hand, your college
    predates ABET then it can't have always been accredited by ABET.

    <sigh> OK, the program was not accredited by ABET when the dinosaurs
    walked the earth. It was not accredited by ABET before Ohio was a
    state. It was not accredited by ABET before the university became a
    state school. It was not accredited by ABET until after it first
    applied for accreditation, which was before I began teaching there.
    So we've established that the program you worked in was accredited
    when you started there. *That* is very likely true.
    The equivalence between "while I was there" and "forever" seems just
    a
    little weird.
    If you're trying to be pedantic, quoting "forever" also seems "just a
    little weird." Note that the word "forever" was not used in my post.

    But your corrections are as welcome as ever! I do keep trying to do my
    best. ;-)

    I took "always" as synonymous with "forever", a minor shade of meaning.

    I don't know about ABET, but the bureaucracy that provided
    accreditation for Cal Poly Pomona requires the accreditation to be
    renewed every 10 years.
    <https://www.cpp.edu/wscuc/index.shtml>
    In other words, accreditation isn't forever.

    You on the other hand, claimed that the program you taught in was
    "always" accredited, when in fact you meant that it was accredited since
    some time that could well have been after Mr. Liebermann graduated >university.

    The mess with accreditation in 1971 was the year I graduated. I have
    no idea how this might affect the accreditation for Frank's
    university. However, you mentioned:
    "Don't you have to actually have a running program before seeking accreditation?"
    The way you asked the question (i.e. seeking vs obtaining), the answer
    is no. The university does not need to have a running program before
    seeking accreditation. The university has some kind of program in
    place when it applies. That program is evaluated by the accreditation bureaucracy which makes recommendations for the changes necessary to
    obtain accreditation. It can take years before the modified program
    is in place before accreditation is approved. That's what I'm slowly
    finding out about my graduation, where accreditation was apparently
    back dated to 1971. I'm not sure this is correct yet as I'm waiting
    for replies from the university and WSCUS.

    Notice the each "school" within the university is individually
    accredited: <https://www.wscuc.org/institutions/california-state-polytechnic-university-pomona/?print=pdf>
    Just to make things weird, I can't find a school for "Electrical and
    Electronic Engineering" as inscribed on my diploma on the above list.
    Also notice that there were some schools accredited before 1970, when supposedly the university was first accredited.

    Not quite. The electoral college was designed so residents
    of tiny states with small populations could still feel they
    had influence. That might have made sense in the early days,
    when former colonies still thought of themselves more as
    colonists than as members of a nation.

    A few weeks ago I came across an article talking about the
    last great effort to do away with the electoral college. The
    effort was led by Senator Birch Bayh. He convinced a huge
    majority of the citizenry that it was time to dump the
    anachronism. He got strong approval in the U.S. House, but
    got filibustered in the Senate.

    The effort continued, but according to the article, two
    things prevented success. One was that some Democratic
    groups (e.g. a Black political association in New York, I
    think) realized that their influence within their state
    would be less likely to be effective nationally; and
    crucially, President Richard Nixon removed his previous
    strong support. Why? Because he got pissed at Bayh for not
    looking the other way at Nixon's own corruption.



    There are many such examples, and many more arguments were
    made, over our history.

    But, as it stands, more dead people voted in recent
    elections in Los Angeles County alone that there are living
    souls in Wyoming (registered voter and not).

    https://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/la-county-and-state-to-purge-15-million-inactive-voters-from-rolls/6866/

    Decentralization of elections while observing the
    sovereignty of the various States is a feature not a bug.




    I really don't know what to make of Krygowski. I became an engineer on the simple ability to think. Eisenhower chose Nixon as his running mate for the very simple reason that he was probably thge finest in6ternational scholar alive at that time. It was
    nesessary for the Demecrats to silence Nixon because not only did he make sense to most Americans but he promised the dawn of a brave new Republican world.

    Therefore the Democrats had to commit election fraud on a grander scale than they had been doing. Nixon commented on that in front of Colonel Oliver North and North decided he had to know what the Democrats' plans were. So he planned and invaded the
    Democrats inner sanctom. It was plan that Nixon had nothing to do with it because it was clumbsy and ineffective, far different from what Nixon would have done. But the Slime Stream Media dumped it into Nixon's lap and hounded him into resigning. To that
    point most of the media was at least polite. But the moment they smelled blood in the water, like the sharks they were, they were tearing Nixon to bits. I wish to remind you of Nixon's last speech. "Your President is not a crook." What's more he never
    needed to be one.

    Now here are 50 years after the event and even from that distance Krygowski still cannot think about what happened. Even with the Nixon Foundation'z vidios of Nixon speeches showing him to have been far too smart to even try something like Watergate.

    Krygowski insists on being stupid because Nixon was a first class Liberal whereas Frank is and remains a stupid socialist.

    Close. It was to obtain a draft deferment. There's no such thing as >> "antidraft" unless you're referring to someone opposed to the draft.
    There were some other reasons why it took so long, but the deferment
    was the major motivation. For example, I had a part time job for all
    of the first 5 years and worked full time during two summers. There
    was also a problem getting into classes required for graduation. The
    colleges were overflowing with students doing the same thing. Seniors >> had priority for obtaining seats. I had to take some unrelated
    classes (i.e. tractor driving and tractor mechanics) in order to have
    enough units to obtain a deferment and later try to catch up when
    seats in my major became available. At one point, I was drafted and
    went as far as getting a pre-induction physical, but was able to
    convince the draft board that I should be allowed to stay in school.

    So after all that time

    This is closer to reality on why Eisenhower wanted Nixon as VP. <https://www2.gwu.edu/~erpapers/mep/displaydoc.cfm?docid=erpn-ricnix>
    I guess(tm) this is what you consider to be an "international
    scholar".
    "Nixon was kept outside of the president's inner circle, yet he
    developed considerable skill in foreign policy, which was demonstrated
    in his 1959 confrontation in Moscow with Soviet premier Nikita
    Khrushchev, known as the kitchen debate."

    You also screwed up your dates and events, but I don't have time to
    fix that for you.

    Eisenhower wanted Nixon as VP because Nixon was viewed a fervent
    anti-communist because he was a member of the HUAC (House Un-American Activities Committee) and because he worked on alien registration
    laws. At the time, the "Red Scare" was very much on everyone's mind. <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Scare#Second_Red_Scare_(1947%E2%80%931957)>

    I was on at least 3 bombing missions to Vietnam in my 3 months of

    Multi engine airplanes have two "pilots". The guy in the Left Hand seat

    Your arguments seem more and more to indicate that you don't know what

    John B.





    Why can't you keep yourself from telling lies? The crew chief had nothing to do with the engine and airframe mechanics beyond submitting write-ups from the crew or submitting your own writeup for normal timed maintenance.

    John, it drives you nuts that you can't lie in front of someone who has been there. You didn't even know that there were SAC and TAC. So stop your trying to deny I was in thge Air Force. AF19748158 E2 with a level 5 maintenance level and a secret
    security clearance until 9-11 when the government seized its chance to take away all of the clearances so that the could spend huge amounts of money to redocument your clearance.

    Tell us again how you and your wife used to ride down into Bangkok.

    Remember, despite the failed Democrat strategy to pretend that there is >>such a thing as a popular vote it is the Democrats themselves who put into >>effect the "winjner takes all" strategy.

    So it is ELECTORAL votes that count now and not the "popular vote" that >>Democrats are claiming was so close.

    Nope, Hitler was appointed as Chancellor because his party was the
    largest in the Reichstag although not a majority.

    EXACTLY why our founding fathers preferred the electoral system -

    More bull shit. The U.S. was originally "designed" to be a union of
    states and the Electrical system was designed to give each state
    election authority, in presidential and vice presidential elections,
    based on their population.

    Liebermann unfortunately is willing to dig around and find any left wing sourse that will sling dirt on Nixon.

    To the real people here, Nixon was driven out of office because he believed that even an unsuccessful attempt to impeach him would destroy his legacy. The Democrats tried this again with Trump and he simply ignored them. Virtu8ally all articles about
    Trump in the Slime Stream Media are completely negative and most are outright lies such as the claim that he said to drink bleach to cure Covid-19.

    This has ended the rein of the Slime Stream Media and 70% of Americans give them not the slightest heed.

    This is why Flunky, Liebermann and Krygowski feel so superior to people that do not spell correctly, They can pick the proper spelling from the list provided. You just witnessed Flunky and Liebermann making a big deal out of spelling Techtronix correctly
    while saying nothing about the fact that the wire fault detector they were touting worked exactly the same way my home made instrument worked and and they claimed wouldn't work. Liebermann, Flunky and Krygowski are life's losers, though at least Flunky
    and Krygowski managed to earn a living.


    Right here in my closet I have one of the best Techtronix oscilloscopes made and a dozen to one, neither Flunky nor Liebermann could even turn it on or use it properly. But they can spell the name correctly and that is important, right?

    Liebermann, you're the only person in the world that can believe that winning by 86 votes in the electoral college where Trump needed only 270 votes to win and he had 312 is only 16%. That stupidity alone should disqualify you for welfare.

    Trump 312 votes
    Harris 226 votes
    Total 538 votes

    Percentage of Trumps votes = number of votes/total of votes* 100 =
    312/538*100 = 58%

    Percentage of Harris votes = number of votes/total of votes* 100 = 226/538*100=42%

    58% + 42% = 100%. Just checking data is valid.

    Trump won by 58% - 42% = 16%

    So now you know why degrees are important, and why only people that
    can think logically can get them (well, in sciences anyway)

    Liebermann's calculus was correct, assuming the number of votes is
    also correct.

    That stupidity alone should disqualify you for welfare.

    And yet it didn't. Biden and Obama were kind to you. You still
    live on welfare.

    But chins up, Trump will be giving you a 75% raise next
    year**, because he gave his "word" he would and he loves poor people.
    []'s

    ** in taxes, but hey, 75% is 75% !!!!

    Eisenhower chose Nixon as his running mate for the very simple reason that he was probably thge finest in6ternational scholar alive at that time. It was nesessary for the Demecrats to silence Nixon because not only did he make sense to most Americans
    but he promised the dawn of a brave new Republican world.

    Therefore the Democrats had to commit election fraud on a grander scale than they had been doing. Nixon commented on that in front of Colonel Oliver North and North decided he had to know what the Democrats' plans were. So he planned and invaded the
    Democrats inner sanctom. It was plan that Nixon had nothing to do with it because it was clumbsy and ineffective, far different from what Nixon would have done. But the Slime Stream Media dumped it into Nixon's lap and hounded him into resigning. To that
    point most of the media was at least polite. But the moment they smelled blood in the water, like the sharks they were, they were tearing Nixon to bits. I wish to remind you of Nixon's last speech. "Your President is not a crook." What's more he never
    needed to be one.

    Now here are 50 years after the event and even from that distance Krygowski still cannot think about what happened. Even with the Nixon Foundation'z vidios of Nixon speeches showing him to have been far too smart to even try something like Watergate.

    Krygowski insists on being stupid because Nixon was a first class Liberal whereas Frank is and remains a stupid socialist.

    This is closer to reality on why Eisenhower wanted Nixon as VP.
    <https://www2.gwu.edu/~erpapers/mep/displaydoc.cfm?docid=erpn-ricnix>
    I guess(tm) this is what you consider to be an "international
    scholar".
    "Nixon was kept outside of the president's inner circle, yet he
    developed considerable skill in foreign policy, which was demonstrated
    in his 1959 confrontation in Moscow with Soviet premier Nikita
    Khrushchev, known as the kitchen debate."

    You also screwed up your dates and events, but I don't have time to
    fix that for you.

    Eisenhower wanted Nixon as VP because Nixon was viewed a fervent
    anti-communist because he was a member of the HUAC (House Un-American
    Activities Committee) and because he worked on alien registration
    laws. At the time, the "Red Scare" was very much on everyone's mind.

    As usual, Error 404 Page Not Found.

    Very few of the web servers produce "Error 404 Page Not Found". More
    commonly, it's just "404 page not found". See for yourself: <https://www.google.com/search?q=404+page+not+found&udm=2>
    You either can't accurately copy what's on the screen or you're lying
    as usual. If you're going to hallucinate error messages, at least
    write something clever, humorous or entertaining.

    Also as usual, you're the only person with the alleged problem. Fix
    it yourself. You experience far too many problems for them to be
    believable.

    But Liebermann who wasn't alive at that time is willing to tell us all about it.

    What time (or date)? Try to be a little less vague and evasive.

    I was born in 1948 and was very much alive when Nixon was president
    (1969 - 1974). I was also alive when Nixon was vice-president (1953 -
    1961). I have fond memories of the Watergate scandal, where one of my roommates in college hung a rather large print of Nixon the wall of
    our dorm room. At the time, I was a Libertarian which made for some interesting conversation.

    Just like saying that the Techtronix wire fault detector is the way to measure wire length when it operates exactly like my home made device. Or that he could tell you that I am wrong about mud conditions on Cull Canyon by looking at a picture from
    Google Earth of unknown date. Liebermann - your life is a failure because you can never learn from your mistakes.

    Thanks for demonstrating your ineptitude. A wire fault detector is a continuity tester. A cable fault detector is a TDR. Show me a
    continuity tester that measures cable length and I might believe a
    small part of the rubbish you're unloading in RBT.

    I'm trying to visualize cramming a B-52 into that hangar.

    I would be interested in knowing which 4 years you worked for
    Bayaire as an avionics technician in Oakland. Was that before,
    during or after you were in the USAF?

    Tell everyone here what you personally knew about Vietnam that you >>>>>didn't get from Wikipedia? I was there and you were hiding. You know >>>>>nothing about it and pretend you do.

    You were in Vietnam? When was that? Before or after you spent your
    tour in Guam?

    And where did you do for the other 3 years and some months that you
    were in the Air Force?

    Or is your whole life a lie? You were never in the Air Force, you were >>>> never on Guam and you certainly were never in Vietnam.

    John, you claim that you were in Vietnam but never in what capacity. But >>>I see no reason to doubt you. Even though it would mean that you changed >>>basic commands from SAC to TAC and SAC NEVER lets go of useful people.

    While overseas I never heard a mention of TAC or SAC, it was the 14th
    Air Commando Wing at Nha Trang Air Base when I was there, under the
    command of the United States Pacific Air Forces (PACAF) Seventh Air
    Force.

    So 1. Why are you lying that Guam was not classified as a war zone and >>>2. Why don't you include the airspace above north and south Vietnam as >>>being in Vietnam?

    I thought I asked you whether you were paying income tax or not - we
    didn't in Vietnam - a war zone - and you never answered.

    I was on at least 3 bombing missions to Vietnam in my 3 months of TDY. I >>>even was in the AC's position and the Pilot turned off the autopilot and >>>allowed me to fly the aircraft while over Vietnam moving towards the >>>DMZ.

    Tommy stop lying. Nobody sits in the A.C.'S seat except the A.C. You
    saying that the let you fly the airplane is so ridicules that it isn't
    even funny.
    As for flying on a mission I have heard that was done when it was
    possible that a technician could fix something in flight but I'm
    guessing that was a rare happening and the thought of a shop chief
    sending a half trained A2C to do the job is, again, ridicules.
    Particularly as said A2C has confessed that his usual "work" was to
    carry the tool bag for a competent A1C.

    In short, you have,once again, proved yourself a liar.


    Seems like you can't stand the idea that there were other people in the >>>Air Force that have your number.

    I do find it interesting that you are completely unaware of the fact that >while there was a unit of the 7th Air Force in Vietnam, it was largely in >Thailand. I also find it incriminating that you do not know that it was >part of TAC.

    No Tommy I didn't know that the 7th AF was a part of TAC, and I don't
    believe you do either. So provide a little evidence.

    If you don't even know that how could you possibly know what
    occurred on Missions? And tell us again how the AC never took a piss or >that there wasn't an Air Force rule that both aircraft control stations >were not supposed to be manned at all times.

    Well, given that I've flown on more flights then you I suspect I know
    more about what goes on in airplanes then you do and there is no rule
    that the AC's seat has to be filled at all times. Why would there be
    such a rule? After all what could an untrained A2c do there?

    Your lies are getting ahead
    of you. Crew Chiefs knew NOTHING about an aircraft in the air. Give us
    some more of your stupid bullshit.

    Ah, so loud, so dumb.

    As a Crew Chief or maintenance technician I flew (lets see) from Japan
    to Okinawa (several times), to The Philippines, to Thailand, and to
    Enewetak. The flight to Thailand was long before any U.S. unit had
    been there before and was to honor the King's birthday or some such
    thing. Enewetak was for the atomic tests of course.

    And so you won't get confused, if you fly there you have to fly back
    :-)

    And the reason why was, of chouse to perform any required maintenance
    a full maintenance crew was needed as there was no qualified
    technicians for our airplanes stationed at these locations.




    It was very easy to remember Stategic Bombders and Tankers were part of SAC. Fighters and Fighter/bombers were TAC.

    The 7th Air Force operated A10's which were fighter/bombers and F15's which were fighter/interceptors and is part of TAC.

    Tom, everyone who has commented has said you're wrong.

    Either give it up, or post links to the posts you're claiming Shadow

    Keeping up your nonsense claims with no documentation makes you look
    even more of a fool.

    What Tom is doing is trying to establish himself as an unassailable
    authority on everything. The object of his game is to demonstrate
    that his authority cannot be questioned. He does this by endlessly
    repeating wrong information on the assumption that doing so will wear
    down resistance to his unassailable authority. To Tom, this lack of
    resistance is an indication that he is correct, and therefore some
    manner of authority.

    I would normally write an FAQ the details most of Tom's false
    assertions along with the necessary corrections, links and references.
    Since all of Tom's claims seems to be wrong, that's far too much work.
    The best I can do is continue fact checking and writing corrections.

    The problem is that neither an FAQ or continuous fact checking will
    work because Tom does not care about being wrong. I don't understand
    how he thinks he can make so many mistakes while simultaneously
    expecting people in RBT to worship him as a model of perfection. If
    he actually cared about being wrong, he would do something fix his own mistakes. However that hasn't happened and probably never will
    happen.

    Eisenhower chose Nixon as his running mate for the very simple reason that he was probably thge finest in6ternational scholar alive at that time. It was nesessary for the Demecrats to silence Nixon because not only did he make sense to most
    Americans but he promised the dawn of a brave new Republican world.

    Therefore the Democrats had to commit election fraud on a grander scale than they had been doing. Nixon commented on that in front of Colonel Oliver North and North decided he had to know what the Democrats' plans were. So he planned and invaded
    the Democrats inner sanctom. It was plan that Nixon had nothing to do with it because it was clumbsy and ineffective, far different from what Nixon would have done. But the Slime Stream Media dumped it into Nixon's lap and hounded him into resigning. To
    that point most of the media was at least polite. But the moment they smelled blood in the water, like the sharks they were, they were tearing Nixon to bits. I wish to remind you of Nixon's last speech. "Your President is not a crook." What's more he
    never needed to be one.

    Now here are 50 years after the event and even from that distance Krygowski still cannot think about what happened. Even with the Nixon Foundation'z vidios of Nixon speeches showing him to have been far too smart to even try something like
    Watergate.

    Krygowski insists on being stupid because Nixon was a first class Liberal whereas Frank is and remains a stupid socialist.

    This is closer to reality on why Eisenhower wanted Nixon as VP.
    <https://www2.gwu.edu/~erpapers/mep/displaydoc.cfm?docid=erpn-ricnix>
    I guess(tm) this is what you consider to be an "international
    scholar".
    "Nixon was kept outside of the president's inner circle, yet he
    developed considerable skill in foreign policy, which was demonstrated
    in his 1959 confrontation in Moscow with Soviet premier Nikita
    Khrushchev, known as the kitchen debate."

    You also screwed up your dates and events, but I don't have time to
    fix that for you.

    Eisenhower wanted Nixon as VP because Nixon was viewed a fervent
    anti-communist because he was a member of the HUAC (House Un-American
    Activities Committee) and because he worked on alien registration
    laws. At the time, the "Red Scare" was very much on everyone's mind.

    As usual, Error 404 Page Not Found.

    Very few of the web servers produce "Error 404 Page Not Found". More commonly, it's just "404 page not found". See for yourself: <https://www.google.com/search?q=404+page+not+found&udm=2>
    You either can't accurately copy what's on the screen or you're lying

    write something clever, humorous or entertaining.

    Also as usual, you're the only person with the alleged problem. Fix
    it yourself. You experience far too many problems for them to be
    believable.

    But Liebermann who wasn't alive at that time is willing to tell us all about it.

    What time (or date)? Try to be a little less vague and evasive.

    I was born in 1948 and was very much alive when Nixon was president
    (1969 - 1974). I was also alive when Nixon was vice-president (1953 -
    1961). I have fond memories of the Watergate scandal, where one of my roommates in college hung a rather large print of Nixon the wall of
    our dorm room. At the time, I was a Libertarian which made for some interesting conversation.

    Just like saying that the Techtronix wire fault detector is the way to measure wire length when it operates exactly like my home made device. Or that he could tell you that I am wrong about mud conditions on Cull Canyon by looking at a picture from
    Google Earth of unknown date. Liebermann - your life is a failure because you can never learn from your mistakes.

    Thanks for demonstrating your ineptitude. A wire fault detector is a continuity tester. A cable fault detector is a TDR. Show me a
    continuity tester that measures cable length and I might believe a
    small part of the rubbish you're unloading in RBT.




    Liebermann, willyou please stop demonstrating your ignorance so casually? There are all kinds of faults that can occur to wire strings. Discontinuity is only one. I re4alize that you're too stupid to actually read that article on the Techtronix wire
    fault testor but it shoed PARTIAL cracks inb the wire in three different regions. That makes no difference to someone whose entire world was changing ink jet printer cartridges since you're use to either continuity or not, but to sensitive electronics
    those reflections from partial breaks can cause failures. And this can come from simply handling the wire too roughly.

    Since you didn't evrn bother to look at the display you missed the demonstration of wire length.

    Is there some reason that you 7you feel the need to show your ignorance with EVERY posting? Why don't you prove that there wasn't water behind the dam on Cull Canyon before the rainy season filled it completely in with mud? You could always show a Google
    Earth photo of indeterminate date to prove me wrong. Of you could always show a picture of the carefully maintained swimming area filling up with mud. Or one that you can clearly see open water in the background. Or you can ignore the sign saying "Keep
    Out, Soft Mud."

    Continue blathering on. At least you have Flunky who is no kind of EE at all agreeing with you. Or the both of you can claim that my resume is falsified because companies would NEVER be smart enough to actually varify claims. Or call the people making
    recommendations of my work. PhD's who earned their degrees honestly.

    Hey, you can always tell everyone that my claim that the BCC Model 1 which I helped build wasn't the
    worlds largest and fastest time sharing computer. THAT must have been why UC Berkeley bought it and put it on line! UC Berkeley at the time actually graduated engineers and not draft dodgers.

    You will try absolutely anything to attempt to pretend I wasn't 50 years an engineer while you had only a very short term as a QC engineer and pissed off everyone so much that they fired you and wouldn't even acjknowledge that you worked for them.

    I was an electronics engineer NOT because I read out so many libraries. I was an engineer because I was actually curious about things from a very young age. I didn't go to college to AVOID something. I went into the Air Force because I wanted to learn
    things new.

    After I got out of the Air Force, I continued and while you were trying to finish the manual on how to change ink jet printer cartridges, I read every single Intel manual down to the slightest derail and knew that an Intell 8008 could control a
    mechanical device performing a complex control job and then later realize that the latest 8080 was pin comatible and simply by changing the clock speed could perform many additional jobs with the same instrument merely by adding additional dimensions of
    movement.

    Again and again you show your true ignorance. Why doesn't it EVER make you stop and think what you look like? John Slocomb's analysis of historicsl events shows that aven in his 90's he is curious and learning. That at least shows to me that they
    probably misclassified him when he enterred the service and should have at least put him in a more technical trade. Jet engine mechanics probably.

    You're nothing more than a QC manager that wouldn't know how to engineer a peanut butter sandwich. They hire QC engineers not because anyone thinks that they are good engineers but because they need someone "qualified" to sign paperwork off.

    It is always entertaining to see you deny you're a "QC manager" because you know damned well what the engineering opinion of QC engineers is and you're not even that - you're a MANAGER who knows so little about engineering that you wouldn't read a C
    program with comments appended that explained what it was doing.

    Who are you to pass judgment on whether Eleanor Roosevelt is an

    I think you'll find that Eleanor Roosevelt was well informed and a

    As for FDR being a racist, I could probably have some fun excavating

    you're not worth the time and effort.

    Some light reading on FDR and race relations:

    "Franklin D. Roosevelt and civil rights" <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franklin_D._Roosevelt_and_civil_rights>

    It was under FDR that the executive order prohibiting federal hiring discrimination by race was enacted:

    It's obvious your "75/25" statement was wrong. If you want me to correct >> >your math in detail - that is, so you wouldn't repeat your mistake -
    you'd have to show me your work.

    You've refused to do that. I can't help you.

    Help is always possible. Whether the recipient is interested in being
    helped is the current problem. Tom wants to be the source and origin
    of literally everything in rec.bicycles.tech. If someone else makes a
    valid claim, backs it with references and explains how it works in
    detail, Tom will want no part of it and claim that it's a Democratic
    party conspiracy. He might also claim that he didn't see the message,
    couldn't read it because his anti-virus program wasn't allowing him to
    see it, or simply ignore any further discussion on the topic.

    These Percentage Vote Calculators might help, assuming Tom is able to
    read, think and calculate:

    Liebermann, you're the only person in the world that can believe that winning by 86 votes in the electoral college where Trump needed only 270 votes to win and he had 312 is only 16%. That stupidity alone should disqualify you for welfare.

    In deference to your limited ability to do simple arithmetic, I posted
    my calculations in as simple a manner as possible. I also provided
    links to two online calculators (above) that will do the arithmetic
    for you without the need to deal with intermediate results. I can do
    no more to help you.

    Liebermann, as usual you posted absolutely inconsequential crap totally misjudging what the actual question was. You wanted to ptove that the winning margine was 16% of the number of electors.

    While that is correct that was not and is not the question. The question is the winning margin. Trump made 138% of the electors voting for Harris. You attempt to make it appear to be less simply through slight-of-hand fails yet again.

    And no matter WHAT Trump has a majority that cannot be broken by any legal method. And he has a majority in the House and the Senate and the Supreme Court. All of which would vote against him if he were the Adolf Hitler you wish he were.

    Trump 312 votes
    Harris 226 votes
    Total 538 votes

    Percentage of Trumps votes = number of votes/total of votes* 100 = 312/538*100 = 58%

    Percentage of Harris votes = number of votes/total of votes* 100 = 226/538*100=42%

    58% + 42% = 100%. Just checking data is valid.

    Trump won by 58% - 42% = 16%

    So now you know why degrees are important, and why only people that
    can think logically can get them (well, in sciences anyway)

    Liebermann's calculus was correct, assuming the number of votes is
    also correct.

    That stupidity alone should disqualify you for welfare.

    And yet it didn't. Biden and Obama were kind to you. You still
    live on welfare.

    But chins up, Trump will be giving you a 75% raise next
    year**, because he gave his "word" he would and he loves poor people.
    []'s

    ** in taxes, but hey, 75% is 75% !!!!




    What you have calculated was the percentage of electoral votes based on total electoral votes. You are quite correct but that is meaningless when the question is WHAT WAS THE MARGIN OF VICTORY BETWEEN THE TWO OF THEM.

    And again the number is 38%

    I suppose that you have a degree and consider the same slight of hand that Liebermann attempted to pull off as clear to anyone else with a degree. Well it is also clear to me that by not answering the real question you did nothing.

    Not to insult you but simply to point out why I was the one selected to take all of the impossible engineering jobs. Unless you seriously consider the correct questions you can never arrive at the correct answers.

    I was actually insulted that they gave me the NASA job to design a communications adapter board for the International Space Station. It was nothing more than cross connecting interface chips. And then I was doubly insulted when NASA wanted a 5,000 page
    manual which was nothing more than the layout of the backplane and the manufacturers manual descriptions of the indivisual communication's adapters. But I suppose that my managers thought that a NASA job would look good on my resume that they used to
    contract me out.

    I have the best anti-virus and VPM that money can buy. That's because when I was recovering frommy head injury I had someone break into my old and slow desktop and screw everything up. It wouldn't even load the OS. So still in the throws of disability I
    took it into a local computer repair business. He promptly told me that the only way to fix it was to load in a new OS. Not understanding what he meant I gave him the go ahead. He ERASED the entire disk and loaded a new OS in. My complete resume and all
    of the recommendations were on it and lost forever. I had a lot of partial resume's out because head hunters didn't like 27 page resume's so I would shorten and specialize them for a particular job. But that meant that all I could recover was partial
    resume's and letters of recommendation.

    A very good friend was an NCIS team leader who was a spy catcher and led a team of I think 16 agents in Italy. He wanted to return to the US but NCIS is almost exclusively overseas. He appled to the FBI which is what his master's was in but they said "
    Whites need not apply" So the only position open was a Federal Agent position as a computer specialist keeping the Federal computer system free of invasions.

    The point is, that if I had asked him about my computer he could have recovered all of my data AND installed a new OS without any damage.

    I seem to recall the you "read out" 4 libraries in order to gain the
    knowledge that allows you to call yourself an engineer.

    06/07/2022

    of the books I used to gain the knowledge to become an engineer."

    Obviously, someone told you which books to read or you would be
    reading engineering books forever. You would never finish reading
    because new books arrive faster than you can read them. Or, you could
    claim that you knew which library books to read because they came to
    you in a dream.

    Nice change of subject.

    You will try absolutely anything to attempt to pretend I wasn't 50 years an engineer

    Yep. It's quite easy to demonstrate that you didn't spend 50 years as
    an engineer. Your last job at Forward Innovations ended in Sept 2014.
    In order to have worked as an engineer for 50 years, your first
    engineering job should have started in:
    2014 - 50 = 1964
    However, the same resume shows that your first job started in Jan
    1984:
    <https://www.linkedin.com/in/tom-kunich-22012/details/experience/>
    Where did you work as an engineer during the missing 20 years? Why
    aren't they on your resume? The only clue is that Jay discovered that
    you had worked at BCC in "Engineering Support" which means that you
    supported engineers in some capacity.

    Berkeley Computer Corporation (BCC)
    The company name was Berkeley Computer Corporation, not Company. It
    existed from 1969 to 1972. I wouldn't mention BCC except that Jay
    discovered a document showing your name on a BCC document. See
    document page 27 (distribution list) under "Engineering Support": <http://bitsavers.trailing-edge.com/pdf/bcc/originals/Admin/BCC_A-11.pdf>
    At this time, this is the only evidence of your employment at any of
    the companies you have mentioned that were not on your LinkedIn
    resume.

    You were born in 1944. To have worked as an engineer in 1964, you
    would have been:
    1964 - 1944 = 20
    years old. Allowing 4 years for your service in the USAF and 1 year
    to obtain an engineering education, you would need to have started
    working as an engineer at age = 15. That's truly amazing and quite
    improbable.

    while you had only a very short term as a QC engineer and pissed off everyone so much that they fired you and wouldn't even acjknowledge that you worked for them.

    Ummm... I was never a QC engineer. Besides changing topic, it might
    help if you kept track of the people you are pissing off.

    I was an electronics engineer NOT because I read out so many libraries. I was an engineer because I was actually curious about things from a very young age.

    At about the same time, I was curious about sex, but that didn't make
    me a sexpert.

    I didn't go to college to AVOID something. I went into the Air Force because I wanted to learn things new.

    I've tried to explain what happened at least twice. I won't do it a
    third time. If you can't find the articles, please let me know and
    I'll post a link.

    After I got out of the Air Force, I continued and while you were trying to finish the manual on how to change ink jet printer cartridges,

    I've written user and service manuals for some of the equipment I've
    helped design. However, I've never designed a printer ink cartridge
    and therefore have not written a manual showing how to install a
    cartridge. However, I have answered some printer related questions in sci.electronics.repair mostly on laser printers: <https://groups.google.com/g/sci.electronics.repair/search?q=printer+author%3AJeff+author%3ALiebermann>

    I read every single Intel manual down to the slightest derail and knew that an Intell 8008 could control a mechanical device performing a complex control job and then later realize that the latest 8080 was pin comatible and simply by changing the clock
    speed could perform many additional jobs with the same instrument merely by adding additional dimensions of movement.

    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_8080>
    "It (the 8080) first appeared in April 1974 and is an extended and
    enhanced variant of the earlier 8008 design, although without binary compatibility."
    It doesn't make much sense to be pin for pin compatible with the 8008
    unless it was also binary compatible.

    Again and again you show your true ignorance.

    I'll admit that I don't know much about the 8008 and 8080. At about
    the same time as the 8080, the marine radios I helped design used
    Fairchild 3870 CPU's.

    Why doesn't it EVER make you stop and think what you look like?

    Why does what I do in front of the bathroom mirror interest you? In
    that context, you seem rather weird.

    John Slocomb's analysis of historicsl events shows that aven in his 90's he is curious and learning. That at least shows to me that they probably misclassified him when he enterred the service and should have at least put him in a more technical trade.
    Jet engine mechanics probably.

    Whatever...

    Well, ok. I did misinterpret what you wrote a little. You probably

    Who are you to pass judgment on whether Eleanor Roosevelt is an
    authority on the McCarthy (Red Scare) era, when you are probably the
    least authoritative person in rec.bicycles.tech on that era?

    I think you'll find that Eleanor Roosevelt was well informed and a
    very prolific writer:
    <https://erpapers.columbian.gwu.edu/editorial-methods>

    Her papers ended up in the Eleanor Roosevelt Papers collection at
    Columbia University:
    <https://erpapers.columbian.gwu.edu>

    As for FDR being a racist, I could probably have some fun excavating
    examples of your racist comments in rec.bicycles.tech. However,
    you're not worth the time and effort.

    Some light reading on FDR and race relations:

    "Franklin D. Roosevelt and civil rights" <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franklin_D._Roosevelt_and_civil_rights>

    It was under FDR that the executive order prohibiting federal hiring discrimination by race was enacted:
    "Executive Order 8802"
    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executive_Order_8802>

    Wrong on all counts, as usual.




    Yet another case of Liebermann's attempts to be an expert by Googling politically correct crap he knows nothing about. I was born in 1944 and was in Jr. High before McCarthyism was destroyed to its roots. We had real teachers then who unlike Krygowski
    didn't seek approval of the herd but thought clearly about matters of the day and did not fear communism as any kind of threat to the USA. Liebermann is nothing more than the same fool who believed that he could tell me the conditions I rode in by
    looking at Google Earth.

    Liebermann, you are living on welfare because you haven't any common sense. You could not hold a real job because you are an asshole and no one would put up with you. And now in the twilight of your life you haven't changed one iota.

    A chip and a PCB (printed circuit board) are laid out. It's possible
    that someone might lay out a software flow chart, but I've never seen
    the term used in that manner.

    Reminder: The surest indications that someone has no experience with
    the technology is the tendency to butcher the spelling, use the wrong
    industry terms and are unfamiliar with the relevant jargon and
    acronyms.

    There is not a microprocessor that has ever been designed with an
    "interupt" signal.

    The Intel 8080 two hardware interrupt lines. NMI was a non-maskable
    interrupt and INTR was a maskable interrupt which has a lower
    priority. <https://www.tutorialspoint.com/microprocessor/microprocessor_8086_interrupts.htm>

    The later 8085 had 5 hardware interrupt pins. <https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/interrupts-8085-microprocessor/>

    Computer Science 101 - consistency in terms. But according you you,
    spelling shouldn't matter.

    I wished it were so. I've seen far to many terms be re-used and
    technical terms replaced by marketing jargon to allegedly simplify
    things. Intentionally wrong spelling to avoid trademark infringement
    really irritates me. Bad spelling would probably disappear if there
    was some means of enforcing correct spelling. The good news is that
    software is rather sensitive to incorrect spelling of instructions.
    The bad news is that most code generators, compilers and AI
    auto-plagiarizers now include a built in spelling checker. Eventually,
    the documentation will have perfect spelling once AI takes of the tech
    writers job. Of course, it will still be unintelligible, make little
    sense and resistant to decryption. I had to deal with such a manual
    when installing a CNC controller where the documentation was probably
    a Google translation from Chinese to English.

    And this was the latest and greatest board layout programs in 2008.

    Tom. What was the name and version of this latest and greatest PCB
    layout program of 2008?

    Diversion: This is how "real men" did PCB layout on mylar with Bishop
    pads and tape for the traces and red rubylith for the ground pours
    (puddles):
    <https://www.learnbydestroying.com/jeffl/PCB-Layout/>
    Oops... What is a White home sewing caching doing in my web pile? I'll
    fix it later.

    You are so full of shit about the Techtronix wire fault detector

    Then prove it. Show me a link anywhere that shows how to use PWM to test >cables.

    For me, Tom's problem is not PWM but rather that Tektronix doesn't
    make a "wire fault detector" but instead makes "cable testers". Plenty
    to choose from: <https://www.google.com/search?num=10&q=tektronix+cable+tester&udm=2>
    Again, not knowing the correct terms is a good indication of Tom's
    lack of experience with the technology and devices.

    One more. Every RTOS (real time operating system) has at least one
    external hardware interrupt pin. The purpose of a real time operating
    system is to guarantee that every hardware interrupt is serviced
    within a specified amount of time. In a non-RTOS systems, the
    hardware interrupts have been expanded and merged with the GPIO

    because I don't know of any that have only one pin.

    A chip and a PCB (printed circuit board) are laid out. It's possible
    that someone might lay out a software flow chart, but I've never seen
    the term used in that manner.

    Reminder: The surest indications that someone has no experience with
    the technology is the tendency to butcher the spelling, use the wrong industry terms and are unfamiliar with the relevant jargon and
    acronyms.

    There is not a microprocessor that has ever been designed with an
    "interupt" signal.

    The Intel 8080 two hardware interrupt lines. NMI was a non-maskable interrupt and INTR was a maskable interrupt which has a lower
    priority. <https://www.tutorialspoint.com/microprocessor/microprocessor_8086_interrupts.htm>

    The later 8085 had 5 hardware interrupt pins. <https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/interrupts-8085-microprocessor/>

    You missed the point. I was criticizing his spelling. All
    microprocessors have "interrupt" lines. None have "interupt" lines. If
    one is attempting to write code for a microprocessor and starts writing "interupt", they going to have a lot of problems.



    Computer Science 101 - consistency in terms. But according you you,
    spelling shouldn't matter.

    I wished it were so. I've seen far to many terms be re-used and
    technical terms replaced by marketing jargon to allegedly simplify
    things. Intentionally wrong spelling to avoid trademark infringement
    really irritates me. Bad spelling would probably disappear if there
    was some means of enforcing correct spelling. The good news is that
    software is rather sensitive to incorrect spelling of instructions.
    The bad news is that most code generators, compilers and AI
    auto-plagiarizers now include a built in spelling checker. Eventually,
    the documentation will have perfect spelling once AI takes of the tech writers job. Of course, it will still be unintelligible, make little
    sense and resistant to decryption. I had to deal with such a manual
    when installing a CNC controller where the documentation was probably
    a Google translation from Chinese to English.

    And this was the latest and greatest board layout programs in 2008.

    Tom. What was the name and version of this latest and greatest PCB
    layout program of 2008?

    Diversion: This is how "real men" did PCB layout on mylar with Bishop
    pads and tape for the traces and red rubylith for the ground pours
    (puddles):
    <https://www.learnbydestroying.com/jeffl/PCB-Layout/>
    Oops... What is a White home sewing caching doing in my web pile? I'll
    fix it later.

    You are so full of shit about the Techtronix wire fault detector

    Then prove it. Show me a link anywhere that shows how to use PWM to test
    cables.

    For me, Tom's problem is not PWM but rather that Tektronix doesn't
    make a "wire fault detector" but instead makes "cable testers". Plenty
    to choose from: <https://www.google.com/search?num=10&q=tektronix+cable+tester&udm=2>
    Again, not knowing the correct terms is a good indication of Tom's
    lack of experience with the technology and devices.

    Trump 312 votes

    Percentage of Trumps votes = number of votes/total of votes* 100 =

    58% + 42% = 100%. Just checking data is valid.

    Trump won by 58% - 42% = 16%

    So now you know why degrees are important, and why only people that

    Liebermann's calculus was correct, assuming the number of votes is
    also correct.

    That stupidity alone should disqualify you for welfare.

    And yet it didn't. Biden and Obama were kind to you. You still

    What you have calculated was the percentage of electoral votes based on total electoral votes. You are quite correct but that is meaningless when the question is WHAT WAS THE MARGIN OF VICTORY BETWEEN THE TWO OF THEM.

    And again the number is 38%

    So do what I did. Show us how you got 38%. Explain line by

    Sigh. The above was my failed attempt to avoid this discussion. I'll
    try to be more obvious in the future.

    You missed the point. I was criticizing his spelling. All
    microprocessors have "interrupt" lines. None have "interupt" lines. If
    one is attempting to write code for a microprocessor and starts writing >"interupt", they going to have a lot of problems.

    Well, I could claim that I thought you were serious or pretend that I
    didn't notice because I've become accustomed to Tom's atrocious
    spelling.

    Perhaps it would be best if we let this discussion die before Tom
    returns from his ride in the rain. Or, maybe not.

    Have you noticed that Tom's typing and spelling errors have a pattern?
    Tom frequently adds an extra letter or character to a word. At first
    glance, the errors seem like random typo errors. All (and I do mean
    ALL) of these extra letters are letters on the keyboard that are
    adjacent or diagonally adjacent to the previous letter in the word. It
    seems like he's hitting two characters at a time. Some guessing
    follows.

    However, that doesn't account for missing characters such as in
    "interupt". Tom might have a vision problem, but a vision problem
    doesn't account for about half of Tom's messages showing correct
    spelling and typing while others show multiple typing and spelling
    errors. Vision problems don't just come and go like that. Therefore,
    it's not a vision problem and target practice is unlikely to help.

    The obvious cause is that Tom had been drinking while typing. That's
    possible and even likely, but I don't think so in this case. Most of
    Tom's writings demonstrate good control over his imagination and his
    ability to provide false information. In other words, his ability to
    lie effectively seems to be unaffected by the alcohol. It would
    explain the transient nature of the typing errors, but in my limited experience, consistently lucid and deliberate thinking while drunk is
    not typical behavior. Therefore, I don't think that drinking while
    typing is the cause.

    Over the years, I've seen all manner of typing styles. One friend and
    customer tended to similarly insert extra adjacent letters while
    typing. Showing him how to use a spelling checker hid the problem
    effectively. His problem was the result of peripheral neuropathy,
    where he had no feeling in his fingers:

    MedlinePlus - Peripheral neuropathy <https://medlineplus.gov/ency/article/000593.htm>
    "One possible cause is 'Long-term, heavy alcohol use'".

    The lack of sensation in the finger tips has also caused him to
    destroy a fair number of keyboards and laptops (mostly Chromebooks)
    because he couldn't tell when he's typing using excessive force. When
    we were working on the problem, I noticed that he had worn off the
    lettering on the keys and polished the key caps. This indicated that
    he was sliding across the keys rather than pushing the keys straight
    down. There were other clues and related problems.

    More:
    "Keyboard for peripheral neuropathy" <https://www.google.com/search?q=keyboard+for+peripheral+neuropathy>

    Disclaimer: I don't have any evidence that Tom has the same problem,
    but it does seem to fit the descriptions.

    I seem to recall the you "read out" 4 libraries in order to gain the

    Obviously, someone told you which books to read or you would be
    reading engineering books forever. You would never finish reading
    because new books arrive faster than you can read them. Or, you could
    claim that you knew which library books to read because they came to
    you in a dream.

    I recall he modified that later on to claim to have read all of the >"non-fiction" volumes

    OK. That means Tom should limit his reading to sections 500 and 600
    of the Dewey Decimal System and not include periodicals and
    professional publications (science and technical papers) which are
    huge: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Dewey_Decimal_classes#Class_500_%E2%80%93_Science>
    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Dewey_Decimal_classes#Class_600_%E2%80%93_Technology>
    In the West Los Angeles public library of the 1960's, each would have
    filled maybe 2 book cases each section. That's based on:
    12 books per ft of shelf space, 8 shelves per book case, and maybe 5
    book cases for a total of:
    12 books/ft * 8 ft/shelf * 8 shelves per case * 5 cases per section
    = 3,840 books in science and tech each for a total of
    = 3,840 * 2 = 7,680 books
    total for Tom to read. If Tom reads 1 book per week (which is
    optimistic for reading an technical entire book), it would take:
    7,680 weeks = 147.7 years
    to read all the books. I don't think that's going to happen.

    Oh, I almost forgot. He "read-out" the books in 4 libraries, which
    would take 4 times as long. I really don't think that's going to
    happen.

    In the 1960's, the average public library had about 50,000 books on
    the shelves. Today, my guess would be about 250,000 books.

    A library doesn't have enough space to handle every technical and
    scientific book published at the time. So, they have to be selective
    and only put on the shelves what the patrons want to read. There may
    also be multiple copies of popular books.

    Anyway, Tom fails the sanity check and the lie detector test.
