While I believe that Randall DID do the bulk of the designing and building of the thing, you cannot ignore the contribution of Fungus, especially with the really technical aspect(moreso than the mechanical)of that machine. I suspect, though, that Fungus was brought in on the project rather late in the game, probably when Waternoose realized that Randall would not be able to handle it alone, not within the time frame most likely provided by his boss. Since Fungus was a motormouth, it was necessary for Randall to employ some worse-than-usual intimidation techniques to keep the little four-eyed nerd from spilling the beans, which is most likely why many people perceive that Randall was just being mean to Fungus and always HAD been. Randall was under intense pressure, so naturally he was going to pass it on. Fungus seemed really good at recalling numbers and fittings and the pro's and cons of different name brands of parts, etc., but I'd wager he spent far more time TALKING about it than actually DOING anything, while Randall strikes me as the type who. once on a task, is going to stick with it in near-silence, with deep concentration on what he's doing rather than what he has to say about it, until the job is done.

Good analysis, Pitbullady, as always (99 more posts and I stop being a skivvy. Since I believe in quality over quantity, I'll be lucky if I make it in a year).. So Randall did the bulk of the work, but needed help because of time pressure.

"What? You think FUNGUS did all that? I mean ok sure...he's good...and annoying with numbers...but I did about lets see....99% of the work"

I believe that Randall built the scream extractor with little help from Fungus.

Randall was probably a little more practical - more of a "do-er" as pitbullady said.
