Hence the use of the word "maybe" in my post. I put about as much faith in lack of bias or detail information provided by Mr Phelps as I do in any other journalist - pretty much zero. In the same way that a broken watch has the right time twice a day, sometimes - rarely journalists do get it right.
I suspect that the question of who came up with the idea first will probably just end up in a "he said, she said" scenario with nothing definitive. It is interesting that Mr Lambden was on the V8 Commission and that the FT5000 was his next project - wonder if there was some discussion about it back then and the two parties headed off in their different directions?
