"...in 1779, Samuel Crompton ... a new invention he called the spinning mule.
He gave it that name not because it looked like a mule or was powered by mules or because a mule once saved Crompton's life and he wanted to show his gratitude, but because the machine was a hybrid of two others, just as the mule is the hybrid offspring of a female horse and a male donkey." (73)
