Great find - FWIW the direct link without google munging is http://www.eng.auburn.edu/~marghitu/Mech3230/Summer05/CII_5_Lubri.pdf

Always nice to see tutorials about taking design back to first principles.

You're welcome to use Bing, Yahoo or Ask... but then you'll never find anything!

When you get down to brass tacks, I'm less concerned about Google keeping track of what I'm search for than I am my ISP.
