Regardless of anyone else's knowledge opinions, as a rank amateur I
hereby reserve the right to develop adhere to my own preferences about
horn valve mechanisms linkages despite complete, total, absolute
ignorance of the applicable principles of torque, torsion, physics,

Heaven forbid an _opinion_ shows up... I'm sure you have plenty of opinions
yourself about a great number of things which could be considered as
'interfering' with your reasoning.
My opinion was not my basis for reasoning. I did not get up one morning and
say, well you know today I will decide this as my opinion. My opinion of
mechanical linkages is based on (a) mathematical evidence of torque, (b)
they take
much longer to deal with in repairs, (c) there are many more parts so the
chance at something going wrong is a little greater and (d) it's something
extra to
oil. In regards to my opinion, the only one I gave was that I didn't like the
feel of it. My opinion of feel is strictly my own and I did not give that
first as my reasoning for what I said. I only said that after the fact.
Many scientists have opinions about a great number of subjects too you know,
and they didn't arrive at those opinions before the fact. They only
arrived at
them after the facts were presented, as I have done so here.
I will admit I didn't know much about the differences in mini-balls to
mechanical arms but that doesn't mean I didn't do my fair share of
research into
mechanical arms.

I think this is the most pertinent statement you have made on this
subject William. All of your other reasonings and justifications
are just so much interference on the subject. On the other hand you are
doing your best to keep the list lively these days.
