Yep, dats der one! They also invented the Turbocharger, I believe it was an employee of Sulzer (I worked for them for two years). Great engineers.

I've done some new construction installation jobs on Brown Boveri machines. Absolutely beautiful, like a fine watch.
Unfortunately I can't always say the same about Siemens ......
