Dr. Fogarty as original inventor

edit

I have modified the brief statement about the centrifugal clutch being invented by Dr. Thomas Fogarty. While Dr. Fogarty is almost always the person attributed with inventing the CC when he was about 12 years old (circa 1946), such clutches were already in production in the 1930's. While young Thomas Fogarty undoubtably invented his own clutch independantly, he was not the first to do so. LowKey 03:14, 27 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
