j for James, rest is my last name. Yes, if you dig down far enough, I am related to Hugh Hefner.

Here is my avatar enlarged:



Upper left corner is the front wheel from a steam powered ploughing engine. Upper right is a driving wheel from a 4-4-0 steam locomotive from the 1800s. Lower right is a flywheel from a stationary steam engine, lower left is the paddle wheel from a steamboat.

In the center at the bottom is the smokestack from a steam pumping station (I also own several small steam pumps). In the center is a computer model of duTemple's steam powered airplane I made for Microsoft Flight Simulator, with a high wheel bike superimposed on top of it.

I named it "1875" because all of the above existed during that one year. History does not record what happened to duTemple's monoplane after its one and only flight that year.

-James
