Just for fun. I wonder if anyone will guess this one right

who said:-

First correct answer gets an attaboy and an e-beer!

Oh and as a by the by, what do we think of it as a statement?

 

Merton Root?

 

Showoff!

Attaboy.

Was that one you remembered or was it a guess?

 

I read it, thought about the language that was used, then thought about who you would not think it to be. Where's my e-beer?

 

Bloody hell simon, it was only early! Can't send you an E-beer at that time of day, you might have been working!!!

Here ya go.


Quite an unexpected thing to read that. Just goes to show. I think poor old "Rootian" biomechanics gets an undeservedly bad press a lot of the time, and its mostly based on the bastardised version most people learn.

 

Go to source, read what was said, make you own mind-up. Hell of a volume of work, however you look at it now 40 years on. At one time I had copies of "casting techniques", "vol.1" and "vol.2" Due to students being robbing gits, I now only have a battered copy of vol.2

Which gives me an idea. Jeff, if you have copies of your father's works- why not make them available as a "complete works"? I'd buy it.
