I work in the aerospace industry. A domain where the best happened between 1950 and 1980. Mainly for bad reasons, among which an ambition to send a hydrogen bomb through or above the atmosphere over to the other side of the world was probably chief, the best scientists and engineers ever to work together did Sputnik, the SR-70, the Apollo programme, the Pioneer probes, the Jumbo Jet, the space shuttle, the Soyuz and Energiya launchers, the Buran space plane, the Concorde, the Airbus.

I have been flattered with three awards recently: the thinking blogger award (by Emily and Lorelle) and Liz’s SOB.

I now start a month of bragging-free writing diet. Anyone catching me bragging (even covertly) gets to decide the theme of my next post.
