Which areas of Technology are you interested in?

Is your interest how the Romans built roads and aquaducts or how the World wide web came about?



I will look all types of infrastructure, buildings and machinery and wonder how it was built but my main interest is Automation & Control. This is a relativly new are of technolgy and I sometimes get the reaction "It doesn't work on steam". However the rate of developement and the lack of corporate interest in last weeks products let alone last years means that we could lose information on recent developments faster than the Victorin era.



So what interests do we have in this community?

    At the age of 84 my priority is heritage and local history.

    I started with a 5 year apprenticeship at the Osram GEC lamp works.

    When we stopped making things I had 30 happy years at BSI.

    I can tell you that when Mrs Marconi brought her son to the US, she stopped over in Wimbledon, attended mass at my church, the Sacred Heart, and there is talk of Marconi conducting experiments on Wimbledon Common.

    More power to your elbow.
