This is purported to happen with rotary brains, too. Simple function, big exhaust ports.

I googled Rotary brains to see if there was something about your post that i was missing (obviously:laugh:) and found this, VERY interesting article and about how even ardent intellectual appeal almost never changes anyone's mind:

How your brain is keeping you from changing your mind

Except when I'm at work, I can get someone to completely change their mind in 60 minutes. It takes a while for the seals to seat fully, though.

Wankel must have done well in life as an inventior. I worked with someone from Germany whose work was sponsered by the Felix Wankel Foundation. Interesting to note, Wankel never had a driver's license.

Giving away trade secrets? I signed an NDA with um I forget now

Actually here in my post corporate world I continue my work as a consultant. Funny that and all where my actual title was Consultant, so I never stopped doing whatever it is I do. And off there over in corporate, always knew exactly what to do even when I had absolutely no clue what to do. So nothing's changed there.
