For our Lawyer friends here
One afternoon a lawyer was riding in his limousine when he saw two men along the road-side eating grass. Disturbed, he ordered his driver to stop and got out to investigate. He asked one man, "Why are you eating grass?" "We don't have any money for food," the poor man replied. "We have to eat grass....

A TRUE synchronizer, such as Glendenning, operates on a slave/master principle. The master throttle is set to the desired RPM and the synchronizer keeps the slave at the same RPM as the preset master. But still, the "Syncronizer" is only making both "Engines" run the same RPM.
