Sure, and when you apply Halpin-Tsai equations to determine ply in composite materials properly, you don't kill operators at molding machines, you don't endanger the end user of such products, and on the whole, you make the world a better place with plastics.

So?

I've been in engineering, and practical applications of engineering, all my work life, and I have yet to find a single engineer who is able to answer the question: Why?

Who, when, what, where, how, are well within their realm. But why is in the realm of God. If someone is bound to the four walls of the senses, it's impossible to even know how to ask the question: Is there weather outside?

BTW, your website's kind of interesting.

"Why" what? You need to be more specific. "Why is X," or "Why do you Z?"

And that's fine. Maybe "Why = God." But then, that does not even remotely come close to refuting "how = evolution" and "when = four billion years ago."

> your website's kind of interesting.

Just wait till I refurb the thing.
