I didn't know Little Twist very well but in the discussions we had I never recalled him saying he worked for Siemen's. At the end of his career he worked for a company (GE) that had a business that competed against Siemen's in this space. He was an engineer for a company that might have been a first-tier supplier for Siemen's though; and the division he worked in was purchased by GE.
Go Dawgs!

Read the article closely. Each company is considering it not just Siemens. I'm pretty sure he was a GE NG turbine guy. He always hated it when I pointed out that GE rarely pays any tax.

Dave worked for Woodward governor in Rockford, then transferred with the company to Stevens Point,
Wisconsin. If I remember right, Woodward closed his division in Stevens Point and they transferred with the company to Fort Collins, Colorado in 1995. I don't know when GE bought them out.
