Bull is the nickname that Tom acquired after writing the “BULL” column for Motion Control magazine in the 90’s. Tom explained to his readers that the “BULL” title was not a reflection of the content of his column, but due to his last name being BULLock. One of 12 children, he left home at age 10 upon the death of his mother and was able to trade his labor for room and board. Today, Social Services would have stepped in, but it was up to the family to find alternatives in those days. After five years, mostly on a farm, he returned home for his last two years of high school before joining the Air Force. His life had its ups and downs, including the tragic deaths of four of his siblings and his own near-death experiences with tuberculosis and kidney failure. The upside was his very successful career as an engineer and manager in the automation field and his family and progeny of which he is most proud.
