Very interesting chap. try also: http://www.sims.berkeley.edu/~buckland/goldbush.html I did some trivial research for Buckalnd, including checking my 50 to 70 year old photography books to confirm that Bush's gate-less projector could not have been produced with available materials at the time: proof-of-concept, but NOT functional. (Calculate what speed the flash tube would have to have been to provide an unblurred image of microfilm moving past.) Goldberg was chief engineer at Zeiss. But, because he was Jewish, during WW2, Zeiss systematically deleted all reference to his existence. In the body (not online) of: http://www.sims.berkeley.edu/research/projects/oasis/trade.html I am given credit as the father of "perverse" retrieval, for pointing out that use of "best possible" retrieval as a constraint for results also calls for identifying "worst possible" as the opposite boundary. -- Grumpy Ol' Fred cisin at xenosoft.com
