An introduction. Name is Dick Morley < dick.morley@cyonresearch.com >. I have been hanging around the golf meeting at Scottsdale for a million years. My stick is VC, controls and Physics. Everything I know came from my dad and Joel Orr. Presently, I am into Stem cells, cancer, controls, chocolate, fusion power, and am with NCMS (the National Center for Manufacturing Sciences). More? Search Google ( "dick morley" ). Innovation is not solving a problem; it creates problems. Engineering is generally a process to seek solutions. Faster, better, and cheaper are but a few of the engineering issues. Now, we need disruption, not standards. Standards are like consultants, a blanket over the smoking pyre. Why? We have a lack of new engineers entering the craft, and they really can't read. So we need to somehow collapse the acronyms into a usable presentation that needs no manual. The new kids have the IQ, but are not interested in the religion of software and its history. Take the vector from Bruce Stirling and move into the human side of the equation. GUI wins. Yes, I know - I am ranting. But is that not what a blog is for?
