[sdiy] pioneering electronics, Siemens

[Rude 66]

my father in law is a retired rocket engineer. he told me a story of going
to a garage sale in his homwtown in california, and on the front lawn was a
part that he recognized as a section of the engine one of the rockets he had
worked on, costing several hundreds of thousands of dollars to machine back
in those days...and here it was for a few bucks..;-)
