Al Knurdelphon
Alfred Knurdelphon, Ph.D., B.S.D., D.D.T., R2D2, Ph.ph, may not be a household name but so what? He is laughing all the way to the bank - the dust bank, that is. You see, Knurdelphon, or "Doctor Dust" as he is respectfully referred to in the industry, is a dust incrementalizer.
"What industry?" you ask, as well you might. We are speaking here of the little understood, though vitally important, product testing and hyperbole verification industry. Dr. Dust's scientific passion for tallying flakes and particles has been successfully applied in the specific arena of vacuum cleaner technology, testing and evaluation.
"For me," smiled Knurdelphon, "dust is not a problem." He believes we should restructure our thinking, perhaps allowing dust to be seen as "just a friend that is better off somewhere else." He went on to describe (in details too boring to repeat) an international standard that he believes is sorely needed for the culturing and farming of the test dust used to evaluate vacuum cleaner performance. He has worked tirelessly to implemaent such a standard but feels that public awareness is the key to genuine action. "I have only begun to speak out about dust," said the doctor. "The rest is up to you."
Alfred Knurdelphon, a dedicated scientist who has risen from the ashes to make sure this important issue is not swept under the rug.
