This was not easy to find
paper study garbage in garbage out?

1992. Too bad this was just verbiage garbage?.  Interesting that they
proposed a similar way to do it I thought of last year with the gearbox.
Unfortunately unlike us their thought process seemed to stop there.  Gee
what a bunch of rhetoric.  Did they actually get paid for this stuff? It
looks like documents  were quickly  whipped together and summited to make a
paper trail for claiming research grant money. Don't ask me how I know:)

And I thought we talked a lot:)

I'll print it out and sift through it when I have time.

It was an appendix on a much larger pdf file. I was just lucky
to run across it. If you searched the NASA data base for "turbo compound"
it would not have appeared. I had to separate the appendix from the
larger pdf to get it small enough to email it to you Gordon, and Steve.

It is a real crime they stopped short of building the hardware
and getting some real data.
