Benefits of a Good Vocabulary

I recently called an old Engineering buddy of mine and asked what he was working on these days.

He replied that he was working on:

"Aqua-thermal treatment of ceramics, aluminum, and steel under a constrained environment."

I was impressed until, upon further inquiry, I learned that he was washing dishes with hot water under his wife's supervision.

He used to work for Rockwell: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXJKdh1KZ0w

The Rockwell Retro Encabulator was a fascinating project.

Love it!

Reminds me of a story told from before my time here where one of the techs posted a fake article about the dihydromonoxide contamination rampant in drinking water. Supervisor freaked out and demanded analysis immediately.

Iffin you need a chem compound refresher, no matter how it's written, 2 hydrogen molecules and 1 oxygen molecule still just make water
