Here's another.
DuPont, Kevlar and the Dream


During the Gulf War, a kevlar vest making machine at DuPont kept breaking down. It was a dream that helped an engineer figure out a solution.

Kevlar vests were in huge demand during the Gulf War and a special high speed machine was set up to create them. Unfortunately for DuPont and the soldiers, it kept breaking down. Engineers could not figure out what was going wrong.

Finally, one night one of the engineers had a dream. He dreamt he was actually part of the machine, and saw water spraying all over the place, along with hoses and springs. When he woke up, he realized that the hoses must be collapsing, and that springs would help keep them open.

His co-workers were skeptical, but when they investigated the issue, they realized it was true. The dream saved DuPont millions of dollars, and probably many lives as well.

Thanks for sharing that story. While my real Dad is alive and well and much beloved, I too have an unofficially "adopted" father very dear to me.

[The structure of the checmical benzene was revealed in a dream to the German chemist F.A. Keule in 1890] "Again the atoms were juggling before my eyes…my mind's eye, sharpened by repeated sights of a similar kind., could now distinguish larger structures of different forms and in long chains, many of them close together; everything was moving in a snake-like and twisting manner. Suddenly…one of the snakes got hold of its own tail and the whole structure was mockingly twisting in front of my eyes. As if struck by lightning, I awoke…Let us learn to dream, gentlemen, and then we may perhaps find the truth." F.A. Keule, as reported during a convention, 1890
