I first saw this in "Popular Electronics" Magazine about 50 years ago,
when "radar" was still a magic word. Not too long ago I ran across it
again in an old "QST". I don't know who wrotem it originally, but it may
have been authored by the submitter, named below:
The Radar Man With the Micro-mind
If you should see upon the street
A man who walks with dipole feet,
With a train of pips trailing behind
He's the radar man with a micro-mind.
With micro-seconds and micro-waves
And micro-volts he spends his days.
And we find with passing time
His brain has shrunk to a micro-mind.
This man attains with passing years
Infinite impedance between the ears.
As he chews his molars oscillate,
And his heart pumps blood at a video rate.
Finally he succumbs to a heavy jolt,
Of what he thinks is a micro-volt.
The doc looks up from his microscope
and says to the nurse,
"Behold this dope, not a brain cell can I find.
For he's the Radar man with the micro-mind."
