I always admired people who could double-talk, not the way this guy does, but with nonsense sounds that almost sound like words. I sometimes talk like that, but not intentionally. :)

Great example of "double talk" a lost art.

Being in the electrical trade all my life, it all made good sense to me. Except for the part about the "girdle spring". I think he just made that up.

I'm still trying to figure out how he could give that presentation without totally cracking up. All I could think of as I watched it was Tim Conway doing the presentation,

This is a direct evolution from the Turboencabulator I read about in the mid 1940's.

Has any UHH the original ? ted
