    You don't really expect an answer to such a "loaded" question do you?
    Being constantly contrary diminishes the credibility of your input.

    Brandt demands this kind of answer whenever anyone dares to disagree
    with him. Turnaround is fairplay.

    In addition, Brandt loves to brandish his "credentials" as a way to
    bully others. Again, fairplay.

    if he wants to lecture on the subject, yes i do!

    does constantly presenting presumptive speculation as fact make for
    credibility? how about when it's on a subject with over 100 years of
    published research which are being ignored?

    I don't understand the logic. Criticise a person for something, then
    turn around and do the same thing. It seems to me that turnaround
    amounts to having other people dictate who you are.

    why do you care - and who are you to ask? i'm an anonymous troll.

    however, i'm not resting on the laurels of my alma mater. and i have no
    interest in trying to sell you anything. and the questions i ask are
    all independently verifiable. and i don't cite myself as a reference.

    why do you care

    It's noticeable that you appear to have an obsession. Are you aware of
    this and do you care?

    - and who are you to ask?

    My name says who I am but you're probably referring to my professional
    standing which FWIW is retired Aircraft Structural Engineer and now,
    High School Math teacher.

    i don't care to have smoke blown up my ass [i also have a very low
    opinion of those that do] and i'll vigorously take issue with anyone
    that tries. especially when they try to bully and [censored] their way
    past when called on it.

    good for you. so why do you not take issue when the "engineering"
    [censored] gets airborne? see above.

    in that jobst has recently and repeatedly sought to establish

    simply wish to learn exactly what those credentials are. that is an
    entirely reasonable and relevant question.

    I've disagreed with Jobst and probably a lot of others in this ng but,
    as you have found out, if presenting relevant data doesn't immediately
    get them to rethink their position (which they didn't come by lightly),
    it will probably never happen.

    And he has already answered it several times (Porsche, SLAC physics lab

    employers. jim beam, however, being an anonymous coward will never dare

    sucked into this foolishness.

    i just wondered if beam is ready to publish his own cv so that one can
    appreciate his point of departure. caps not used, here. maybe he'll be
    able to read and reply directly.

    The same way you did probably :-)

    I'm tired of this obsessive preoccupation so I fired in some feedback.

    where's the relevant data on spoke fatigue mitigation? i've presented
    data on what can be observed of fatigue failure and where it initiates.

    he makes these claims. no response.

    why get suckered into a credentials pissing contest? i'm not citing my
    own work, selling anything or stating anything that cannot be
    independently verified.

    You don't really expect an answer to such a "loaded" question do
    you?

    Brandt demands this kind of answer whenever anyone dares to disagree
    with him. Turnaround is fairplay.

    And he has already answered it several times (Porsche, SLAC physics lab
    at Stanford, Hewlett-Packard that I can recall)- unless the the tedious
    beamster is demanding specific like dates of employment for each
    employers.  jim beam, however, being an anonymous coward will never dare
    to reveal such information about himself.  Indeed, we have nothing more
    than his unsupported claim that he is an ex-metallurgist.  That makes it
    all the more hilarious that he is challenging Jobst and that the other
    anonymous dorkwad, Ozark, has got his back.  I'm not sure how you got
    sucked into this foolishness.

    Hey, Timmy, you claim to have me killfiled. How would you know whose
    back I have, you cowardly wuss?

    I expect we won't see an answer as you hide behind killfiles and in
    moderated forums, you [censored].
