I forgot the most important abbreviation of all: KISSKeep It Simple Stupid Doctors have a Hippocratic Oath. Engineers need the KISS oath. SCC (Supremely complicated crap) never impressed me because there is usually a better way to design it.
Hi Blair and all.For many years I was involved in modifying German machinery (Gas & electric) to get them approved by local gas and electrical authorities and it always amazed me to see how the German always made everything so complicated.For example, to light a 2 watts bulb, they went thru a relay, instead of going direct. Even my Volkwagen Passat had a vacuum pump with vacuum pistons for the door locking system, instead of a simple selenoid coil.Someone told me that the German make everything complicated so that they look smart...Guy 13.Note : KISSI must be stupid, because I always try to make everyhting SIMPLE !. . . . . . . . . . . . . .
