Thinking about it objectively, I am not convinced that a first-rate engineering education plus many decades of practical experience is a good thing. Especially when all that accumulated experience has basically taught you that unbreakable materials break, infallible designs fail, and frikken *everything* explodes under what should have been normal operating conditions. Ive had *ice* *cubes* explode. Really. Im not kidding. Consequently, everything I design these days is built like a tank and will probably outlast the pyramids themselves. And it takes me forever to do anything. In fact, I am paralyzed into inaction by the certain knowledge that, no matter what I do, Murphy is gonna win. I have almost finished the conceptual design of my knock-together random wire antenna. Back when I was 16, I could have finished building three antennas in the same amount of time, and squeezed in a couple of mens matches of tennis as well. *sigh* If its this bad when Im 58, what in the heck is it gonna be like when Im 78? https://youtube/watch?v=z_EO_ifTfcU
