LOL... now tell us how you knew. I only knew from my 200+ page edition of Cincinnati Milacron's 1884 to 1984 corporate centenial celebration book. I suspect a rather obscure bit of paper these days...Could I give this a Whirl(wind)?

An acquaintance would sometimes refer to this as the MIT Whirly-bird which he would emphasize with a finger on his hand.
It seemed like there was some bad blood about the whole deal.

You wanna sell that book?LOL... now tell us how you knew. I only knew from my 200+ page edition of Cincinnati Milacron's 1884 to 1984 corporate centenial celebration book. I suspect a rather obscure bit of paper these days...
I was going to way, "Wrongo !" because Parsons was there first, Parsons did demonstrate nc before MIT got into the act, Parsons did create numerically-driven helicopter blades (I think it was) before MIT got into the act, and they didn't "think they had a better idea" they did a power play and pushed him out. But he was the pioneer.Yeah, there was some conflict between Parsons (who, along with the Air Force, approached MIT about implementing/improving his concepts for machine controls and methods) and MIT, which decided it had a better method and eased Parsons out of the research agreement with the AF.
We rode the wave for many years. US controls were far better than any Jap shit. The electronics of the day were unreliable but if our home-grown asshole finance people had not taken over US society, we'd still be on top. US controls were da bestest. Screw dem Japs, their ideas are all ass-backwards. US controls make sense.Especially since we had the chance to really ride the wave, but allowed business shortsightedness to blow a bunch of opportunities...
You wanna sell that book?
I think he was talking about the Cincinnati 100 years history softcover. I'm not sure those were ever for sale. They gave them to customers.Edit:- You can get a pdf copy of the book from the net. Use the search term "forces of production pdf"
