Suppose that the wheel has exactly x turns in each direction (e.g, in my vehicle x=1.5). Where exactly do you need to steer the steering wheel? I thought at first that the points on the wheel that correspond to 3 and 9 on the clock (i.e, both sides) in a straight line driving should always be perpendicular to the velocity vector. So when driving at turns and circles they should turn towards the center of the circle, but it seems to me that this is not true ... 37.142.171.65 ( talk) 08:49, 10 February 2018 (UTC)
Recently a picture alleged to be Capt. Thomas H. Butler on /info/en/?search=Thomas_H._Butler. I am cowriting a book that includes a bio on Capt. Butler, and we've been searching unsuccessfully for 3-4 years for a picture of him. We want to use the picture, but we need to authenticate it that it is indeed Butler. I've contacted several of his descendants, and none of them thus far has had a portrait or picture of any kind. How do I go about verifying the picture? I found the "name" of the person who posted it in January of this year, but it appears the person hasn't set up a page. Any suggestions? Thank you.
