The Entabulator.....

Many years ago, Rockwell International decided to get into the heavy duty automatic transmission business. They were getting ready to tape their first introductory video. As a warm up, the stage crew began what has become a legend within the training industry.  This man should have won an academy award for his stellar performance.  Now remember and keep in mind, this is strictly off the cuff, nothing is written down. Nothing he says is true. He had NO script. This was a rehearsal for camera, lighting and stage crew.  It's all total meaningless drivel made up as he goes along.  I am told that this video is still being utilized as a training aide for some Gov officials and bankers who now have a need to justify their very existence.

This has been going on since I was an apprentice in the seventies, I have spoof GE document from 1962 describing it in its earlier form as a retro-encabulator, the dreaded Wikipedia has a history of the imaginary device, we use the old GE document here to screen out the chancers.
