You might notice the "edit" button along the bottom edge of the first post, simply correct the spelling error, cutting out most of these dopey responses. Just don't change it to "motor". Steve

I resemble that remark!

Interesting, but I have always thought "Suck, squeeze, bang, blow," pretty much covered it all...

Except in a jet - all seems to happen at once: sucksqueezebangblow.

Those animations are fascinating - anyone know how they're done?

There a series of GIF files, made in auto cad, says so right on the linked page.

Ron,

That's quite funny, glad to see you are still full of mischief.

I *will* be stealing above for my own use...

Dan,

I think that was Heinlein, sci-fi writer's line -- but as I recall it was : "Suck, Squeeze, Pop, Phooey..."

50?...55? years ago?...ouch...

I liked Heinlein's books.

Sorry, I misspelled it.

Is that something like an eigenvalue? I used to know how they work.
