> name dropping that doesn't have anything to do with the subject matter This is a good point. However, it's probably worth pointing out that in the past few decades -- at least here in the PNW -- carbon fiber availability to the hobbiest and small producer has been spotty. I'd refer to Boeing and being the same 787 carbon fiber for my personal projects, but that's just because they're made from Boeing offcuts donated to a local University. At the time (ca 2006), even bare weave was hard to obtain from private suppliers. Its feasible that Rush may have had help from Boeing sourcing his material, which puts comments like that in a different light.
