Personally, I like the humor of the comments!! The general
officer who taught the "tribology" course would never have
admitted that it included "lip gloss technology"(if he even
knew). The emphasis was on the gory stuff Matt described!!
"Lip gloss technology" might have been more interesting...

Fred,
We actually had two separate courses. One was tribology -
which close-coupled to the fluid dynamics section.
Tribology being the study of things that rub one on the
other. The second was lubrication technologies and between
the two were included all manner of slimy and sliding things
and hydraulic wedges and journal orbits and dynamic film
displacement and other whole sections on dry film
lubrication with metallic soap like Graphite and MoS2 and
then low viscosity support like air bearings. It's no
friggin" wonder that program is dead.

I know Fred first hand from GMCMI and I was just teasing him
a little bit in my response. I'm sure he took it that way.
