I Was In An Industrial Laboratory Because Academia Found Me Unsuitable

One Couldn't Even Measure Roughness. So, By Luck, And By Reward For Persistence, I Did Found The Theory Of Roughness, Which Certainly I Didn't Expect And Expecting To Found One Would Have Been Pure Madness.

For Much Of My Life There Was No Place Where The Things I Wanted To Investigate Were Of Interest To Anyone.

Everything Is Roughness, Except For The Circles. How Many Circles Are There In Nature? Very, Very Few. The Straight Lines. Very Shapes Are Very, Very Smooth. But Geometry Had Laid Them Aside Because They Were Too Complicated.

Engineering Is Too Important To Wait For Science.
