More info, please? We still talk to a bunch of the folks that treated Logan. I'll bet they'd love to know where they could get those things. Logan in May, 2012 (in remission!):

Which was just as reliable as it looks.

(Thus allowing Hans von Ohain [spelling??] to make the first one durable enough to put into a jet fighter.)

There was some documentary on recently featuring a Gloster Meteor flying with its original engines. Ain't no Me262's doing that trick.

JWT, a global ad agency, and Warner Bros Entertainment have teamed up to take cancer treatments for kids to a whole other world–the world of superheros! Working with the A.C. Camargo Cancer Center in Brazil, the team developed a plan to re-design the cancer center to be a superhero haven with a “Hall of Justice” (former game room) and superhero decor throughout. The intravenous chemotherapy bags have been transformed and re-branded as “super formula” and are encased in superhero character covers.

chemotherapyJWT and Warner Bros. also developed a series of superhero comic books, specifically designed for kids fighting cancer. In these comics, characters such as Super Woman, Batman, Spiderman and Wonder Woman undergo courageous journeys–similar to those taken by courageous kids fighting cancer.

JWT states on their website, “The first step in the fight against cancer is believing in the cure”. Believing in the cure and encouraging children to Never Ever Give Up is what we will continue to do. A big thank you to JWT, Warner Bros and A.C. Camargo Cancer Center in Brazil for this huge boost of encouragement for kids fighting cancer. We NEGU for you!

Said to be the first to run tri-five frame with pre-war body and offset and set back motor and driver. He also played around a little with center drive to set back motor more. Mr. Kneisel's modified racer below: And just for the heck of it, hotlink of my gramps. He used to race Dave, Ed "Fast Eddie" Spencer Sr., and other notables :

Can you translate some of the above into something comprehandable by a layman please?? Tri-five frame??
