 The area in which Kalvin wanted to devote most of his time was:
Kalvin Feetch shrunk visibly. I want it completely developed, engineered and tooled-up, ready for production. I've been trying to tell you for years that we're bound to fall behind because we don't have enough personnel to conduct research. A designer had to dream at his board, investigate, search, build, test, compare, discard. He had always wanted to devote all his time to research, but Piltdon Opener had not given him that opportunity. Twenty-five years of close supervision, dead-lines, production headaches, inadequate facilities and assistance. What had happened, to the proud dream he once had, the dream of exploring uncharted engineering regions, of unlimited time to investigate and develop? Ah, well, thought Feetch straightening his thin shoulders, he had managed somehow to design a few good things during his twenty-five years with Piltdon. Since the early 1980's the schools had been turning out more technicians than industry could absorb. "We must work along classical can-opener lines. Twenty-five years of your life you put in with Piltdon, and he'd fire you just like that if you don't do the impossible. "I drew my pay every week so I suppose I have no complaints. The machinist departed and Hanson locked the opener on a can. Several days later, however, Piltdon himself charged into the drawing room and slapped Feetch heartily on the back, causing him to break a pencil point.
