KINGSTON, R.I. -- June 2, 2004 -- Rob Vincent, an employee in the
University of
Rhode Island's Physics Department, proves the adage that necessity is the
mother of invention.

Hello, Steve

Most folks that invent or discover something are doing something they enjoy.
We can likely look at almost anything and most folks are having fun and only
a few are actually "inventing" something. Of course, it is totally ignorant
to assume than no ham is doing anything constructive any more than it would
be to assume that no NASCAR racer, or baseball player, or any other person
in a given field is "doing" anything

Best regards from Rochester, NY
