Sponenburgh, one can't learn to be a decent machinist if they can't
learn to develop the skills to think their way out of difficult
situations on their own.


But he's not TRYING to be a 'decent machinist'. I'm not even sure that's
in his top twenty priorities. He's a used equipment dealer, earning a
living doing that, not doing machining.

Would you object to his questions if he stated himself to be a framing
carpenter, and just wanted to know how a particular metalworking
operation were done?

Of course he would. He's Jon Banquer. Just plonk him, Lloyd.



I have this venomous midget on the very bottom of my killfile.
