General Casey – Chief of Staff of the Army at the time – told a bunch of engineering jokes while addressing a room of engineers at a Black Engineers Stars and Stripes dinner. Most of these jokes he probably lifted from Design News.

Rob Spiegel has covered automation and control for 19 years, 17 of them for Design News. Other topics he has covered include supply chain technology, alternative energy, and cybersecurity. For 10 years, he was owner and publisher of the food magazine Chile Pepper.
