Went to a lecture tonight on Electro Magnetic
Compatibility (EMC) given by one of our consultants,
Derek Walton, who is from England. To make us pay
attention, he lined up quarters for, in his words,
"Coffee Money Prizes" for answering questions
correctly. Someone suggested he might up the amounts
for really good answers to "Beer Money" level. He
responded:
"If I could buy beer in this country I would."
Talk about your irate Point Beer swilling crowd....
