Dickie: Memoirs of a Mad Scientist

Mad Scientist? Growing up in the '50s and '60s in a small suburb of Chicago, a nerdy kid like Dickie could experiment to his heart's content. No one batted an eye when he took off for parts unknown after a hearty breakfast. Read how he almost burned down his school with a science fair project, turned on neighbors' lights with high-powered radio gear, violated top-secret security procedures, stuffed monkeys into small race cars, built a one-armed robot that drank too much, and other antics while on his way to earning his "mad scientist" moniker. Richard has written articles for electronics and automotive publications, including "How to Build Max-Performance HEMI Engines." He adopted the phrase that still gets him into hot water: "After all, how hard can it be?" About the Author Richard Nedbal lives with his wife Linda and two Corgis in Northern California.
