    BTW, Bernoulli was ONC engineering back in the 70's.

      Go and pick on someone else. As FB mentioned before, it is a lifetime of hard fought and won engineering experience that makes him an engineer. I for one would employ and respect that on ANY engineering project.

      Trumped up little tw*t.

      And you have worked on many engineering projects where you have been in the position to employ?

      Seems like anyone on the internet can now claim to be an engineer.

      Point proven.

        You have clearly no idea who Bernoulli was.

          Thank you, that really is my final word, though I was looking forward to the idiot not having a clue why the compressor I mentioned above wouldn't work without Bernoulli or why the type was favoured for use in oxygen applications. Never mind. I've nothing to prove.

            Ok, you win. Well done. I have already posted beyond my normal constraints of what I consider polite so will not be drawn any further into the debate.

            FB, please do not listen to any of this. There is one thing they cannot teach in Uni. It's called "Engineering judgement"

            For example an electrical engineer I know tried to shut down the street lights on a stretch of the M25 owing to the leakage current exceeding acceptable limits. The "old school" engineer that oversaw the job got called on site, and was given a dressing down. He took it. Then returned fire. The leakage current was soooo low, like 1/12000 of an amp. The limits are deliberately low, but in this instance the number of traffic accidents would have outweighed the risk of running the circuit for one night with the leakage, until investigative work could be carried out at daybreak.

            The engineer was extremely red faced and backed down.

            Engineering judgement. It goes a long way.

              You didn't ask who Bernoulli was, you asked for an explanation of the principle that carries his name:

              Changing the question so you can attack somebody (while ignoring their original answer) is the hallmark of a troll. You have been exposed.

                  Minestrone is now on my ignores list.
