I work in the accounts payable department at Graco. I'm sure any one who has painted cars has probably heard of Graco. They make paint sprayers, pressure washers, and all sorts of different lurbrication devices.

I'm an operator at a 50 MW electric power plant.
Our prime mover is a General Electric LM5000. That's a gas turbine engine, or jet, similar to the ones on a 747. The civilian aviation version of that engine is, I believe, the CF-50. I'm not sure what the military designation would be.
