I like the twisting machinery - very impressive programming right there.

I used to work in a cider factory and I recognize the process of squeezing juice out of bagged macerated fruit stuffs and leaving the pulp behind. After every drop of juice was squeezed out of the ground up apples in a 25 ton Farquhar press the leftover material, called pomace in the cider trade, was sold as animal feed. Good times, good times...

Oh, and the company I used to work for is still in business, now being run by the 3rd generation of the same family. I have to assume that those spoiled children will run it into the ground. Either that or they are living on a beach somewhere, the business is being run by people who know how to keep the lights on, and the children just collect their checks.
