The name is a bad engineering joke (I'm an engineer). Don't read the explanation unless you like nerdy jokes. You've been warned.

How do you calculate the airflow around a camel?
Assume the camel is a sphere. Then calculate the airflow around a camel.


(Basic explanation: engineers don't like to solve hard problems, we like to make hard problems easy then solve them).

See, don't you regret asking now?

I sorta remember doing lots of problems involving a spherical cow of uniform density. Either that or it was just a bad joke. Or maybe a nightmare.

Anyway, welcome!

Glanced at your name, kinda read it like "Sph......Camel", though what a weirdo because spherical was not the Sph..... word that first jumped to mind.

But you sound cool, so welcome to the BN :D

Hey All,

I stopped checking this post then it showed up again! Kal_ale, I've only been brewing since December. I got a brewing kit as a wedding gift and haven't looked back yet.

Thanks for all the welcomes!
