Yes, it was called "Say, Smokey..." Every issue of Popular Science is on Google Books, you can go back through the issues and read them (along with the Gus Wilson mechanic stories.) https://books.google.com/books/about...d=MC0DAAAAMBAJ I'm not sure of the exact dates Smokey's column ran, but it was in there at least from the mid 1960s to the mid 1970s.

I have a saying at work that is about the same as philosophy in quote above. When you have an audit, you need to give them some "low hanging fruit". Give them something to be proud of right away. Otherwise they dig deeper. |

Extremely smart man. A College piece of paper would have meant little to him.
BUT if he talked to you, and what he heard, he agreed with, he was a very interesting person to know. Tom V.
