Happy Birthday, Allen Wilson!

Paul Fox All Messages By This Member #4294 Just thought it seems appropriate to note that today is Allen Wilson's 200th birthday! As a refresher, he invented the vibrating shuttle, the rotary hook and round bobbin, and the four way motion for the feed dogs. And, of course, he was the "Wilson" of Wheeler and Wilson. paul =---------------------- paul fox, pgf@... (arlington, ma, where it's 56.0 degrees)
