He was a private consultant who could design a part on his computer, and run it to failure without ever physically building the part. His mission was to predict failure rates for new designs so the companies could factor in the cost of replacements for parts that failed while still under warranty. He called then "baby chicken" parts- - - - -"CHEEP- - - -CHEEP- - - -CHEEP!" Jerry
