Bob , you have not changed a bit ! coooool
I guess I liked the rock and rolling on the ships we took to Holland and New York. One day will have to share my boat hull designs. We were working on hull drag reduction PODS ( bulbous bow of a 300 meter ship) till our funds ran dry with the deep Water Desal Project. CHESS+EVANS LLC Force Fin sales support several projects, so sales do more than make you happy moving with the FORCE. #FORCEFINNERSUNITE. Force Fin

I think I learned to sit still on a sea bed, from hours posing for my Dad. Here I am in Perugia, Italy. The Church was visible from my room window. 1959. Aqua Corps Cover Story – Force Fin

You had quite an European upbringing. My dad grew up close to Paris, just after the war. Left it in the early 60's. Still longing for the city he knew, which is long gone now : more and more wealthy boroughs, less and less working class ones. :(
 
When I found this drawing our father Gordon B. Evans did of me at 5 years old, I noticed the Crystal Ball. A paper bag hat with a Crystal Ball and a pair of Force Fins.

This is the true test for any fin. Remove the heel strap and see what happens. Either your fin FORCES it self on your foot while swimming or it falls of. The Name Force Fin came about when I saw this designed Forced onto my foot and I could not kick it loose.

Would you care to elaborate, please ?
JMBL, this letter to our wonderful Congressman Robert J. Lagomarsino helps to layout the start of History making. In the end we won a lawsuit and got our Force Fins patents. But we were the second people to revise a abandoned patent. The first of the true inventor of the AirPlane, MacCollum. A kind of weird twist was the Orange County Patent firm we hired as expert witness. They stated my lawyer (name removed, Dan has passed on) did not file all claims on what I had invented, and one day someone might claim those Patents...Funny thing happened, years later they helped some one get those claims for a " Split Fin" Was this wrong, you bet it was. But they could never touch me with my Foil Force Foil Force Fin – Force Fin because the Licensed Companies knew the truth, at least their insurance company did when they came after us. If I have a bitter tone some times you might get some idea of what happened. I am no fan of the Dive Industry This is just the tip of the Ice Berg. Aqua Corps Cover Story – Force Fin

Read the letter... Once more reality seems far worse than any fiction. Ugh ! Both quite incredible but alas so common... Need more time to read the Aqua Corps article.
 
I would say Bob got screwed . period .
Susanne and I have a saying " Good People get fuc..each day". But it leaves a bad taste. When you heard about #@%& Press and their FAKE fin tests...but I must be careful, these Dark creatures are still alive in the SWAMP.
