yeah, right, chippies just *know* how to do steeplejacking,
boilermaking, turning, stone masonry, exquisite drawings,
etc, etc, they don't pick it up along the way


Heh heh. Old George - still working well into his '70s, probably would

was no actual foreman. So made it his business to know at least as much as
anyone on site. Just like IMM thinks he does. But George actually did.
