This article seems circa 2019. Laser welding with flexible, lightweight heads and 1-3kW fiber lasers are poised to change methodology by removing parameters. Smaller, handheld units area easier than glue guns to handle.

I had him for second term calculus, which was the first math course I took in college. So I get to listen to him speak it in my minds eye —- his voice is unforgettable. He was a great teacher. 2. I have an interesting take on this subject.

First of all, those were the good old days. I used to save GO TO and CONTINUE cards, including ones I found in the trash. Then, I would adjust my control statements, which I had to type anyway, to agree with those cards.
