Well IU know Elliott/Ferrante/LEO/English
Electric/Marconi all started
combining in the 60's, and that English electric was one of IRC's
victims. I just don't know the exact sequence and whether IRC brought
any of it about.
Heh... the Leo I was pretty wild looking! Looks like it was designed
by a Hollywood (or Pinewood Studios?) B-movie set designer... guages!
At any rate, the Brits get left out of the histories I often see,
leading to the mistaken belief we did it ourselves.
