MQP time machine

So we just got our term projects assigned tonight in Norton's class. It's a smaller version of what MikeD and I received a little more than a year ago for our MQP. Yah! (insert sarcasm here)

I can't really complain though. While we do have to model almost the entire station of an assembly line and work out the cam dynamics, we don't have to mess around with the logistics of the linkages. So, I'll give Oldy some credit there.

Also, has anyone noticed how much Norton looks like William Forrester, from "Finding Forrester"? I watched it this past weekend with Sarah for the first time, and spend the movie thinking of all the similarities:

Forrester rides a bike, Norton rides a motorcycle
Forrester wears an old english style cap, so does Norton
Forrester wears a weathered leather jacket, so does Norton
Forrester is an older fellow, as well as Norton

The list goes on and on. Too bad I didn't make the connection when we were in London during the spring. Maybe Norty was also working for MI6 (Forrester = Connery = Bond)?
