I work in the mining industry and I try to educate my people about things 
we encounter everyday but may not exactly understand. (3 phase 
electricity, etc.) Some of our machines must take a "straight oil" but 
others must use a multi viscosity oil.  I want to communicate to them with 
some kind of scientific basis for why we use different oils.
