Paul: <According to this kids biography:<snipped>> Paul, you asked for this: According to P.Engel's biography (as per "Inside Intel" book by Tim Jackson, Chapter 15, published by Penguin Group, ISBN 0-525-94141-X) "... assembly ... site near Penang... Engel flew over to oversee the installation... Engel found scenes of chaos. ... where fuses had blown, the plant electricians had replaced them with normal electrical wire. ... By replacing the fuse with standard electrical wire, the plant electricians were almost guaranteeing that equipment would be damaged in the event of a problem with the power supply. Loyal employee that he was, Engel submitted his second report.." (p.138) " On May 1, 1975, hours after Engel had submitted his report, a fire had broken out in the Penang plant, burning the entire facility to the ground" (p.139) "With millions of dollars at stake, the insurance companies soon appointed loss adjusters ... The insurers asked to send an investigator to interview Paul Engel. Asked to hazard a guess as to what might have caused the fire, Engel made no reference to the dangerously faulty wiring that he had noticed during his visit. Instead, he reminded the investigator that there were communists insurgents in Penang. One theory among the locals, he said, was that communists had actually launched a rocket at the Intel plant during the hight. That was not Engel's only brush with Intel's insurers." (p.140) Hopefully the book tells about insurance fraud from different Engel:-) Ha. Paul, you are posting too much of garbage. You are totally transparent. Go back to Intel thread and tell them your tails.
