The company did not succeed, and he couldn't pay the money back, and I was the guarantor of the note. So, I had a $100,000 debt, and I noticed that the Kramer prize for human-powered flight, which had then been around for --  -- 17 years at the time, was 50,000 pounds, which, at the exchange rate, was just about 100,000 dollars.
但是公司砸了，他也没钱还银行， 因为我是担保人，这十万美元的债就是我的了。 我发现给人力飞机有个Kramer奖， 这个奖项已经设立有 十七年了，积累了五万英镑， 兑换下来，正好是差不多十万美元。
