Simple Harmonic Movement

I pity the non-engineers who cannot discern the sinusoidal motion on the part of the subject… We engineers, on the other hand, take delight in burying ourselves in such interesting research.

John McEleney, SolidWorks CEO

Here's a pic of me with John McEleney, the CEO of SolidWorks. It was taken on February 6, 2007 at the offsite event SolidWorks takes it's customers to. Since we were in New Orleans this year, it was at Blaine Kern's Mardi Gras World!

The WOZ

 

Here's a pic of me meeting Steve "WOZ" Wozniak, the co-founder of Apple. This was at SolidWorks World 2007 in New Orleans on February 6, 2007. He was the keynote speaker for the General Session that day. He was pretty much giving an autobiography of his life and what influences and experiences he had in his life when he was young that shaped him.

He is a very energetic and humorous speaker. Sadly, he ran out of time before he finished. I could have listened to him all day talk about everything he got into when he was younger and coming up through college to him founding Apple Computers with Steve Jobs.
