I strongly suspect they will have to retract this story. I am like 90% sure this guy was in the last board meeting sitting behind GM Eng.
Remember though when this reporters sister (our state secretary of transportation) gave a no bid contract to her exbrother in law (the reporter's exhusband)?

MBTA consultant with no-bid contract paid more than $710,000 to work from South Carolina home

Garrett WollmanHmmm. Interesting to compare the March #MBTA board "decarbonization" presentation with the much more extensive one from the prior week's safety, health, environment committee meeting. The full board version drops all mention of commuter rail, which is 47% of the MBTA's carbon emissions, and also omits discussion of the diesel heater issue. cc @scribblesonnapkins

A colleague studied at Isfahan University of Technology. He like many was just trying to learn while he was there and spent the bulk of his career after computer modeling safety cages for cars. It was a continuation of his thesis work on finite element analysis.
Not everyone in a school with military ties is connected to weapons.
