Default What no s.e.r repairman in Antartica ?

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-20817560

Any proper repairer would know that just because something has obviously
failed , then its failure can easily be colateral damage from the unseen
failure of something else

ps
I had a second cousin expire in 1968 , a Ken Portwine, basically due to a
lack of medical expertise on Antartica.

Sorry to say but most of them who calls themselves repairmen are only
simple module swappers.
Present them with a real fault on something, ie a failure in the chassis
wiring or anything like that and many will fold :-(

Hmmm, there are many experienced folks about who are denied work because
in the opinion of the inexperienced folk in charge they are too old. In
my opinion this is why the likes of your self come up with such
statements. All too soon will your comments be fact.

I can add what i happening in the car mechanics sector:
'Sorry to say sir, but my computer does not indicate that you have a
boiling engine so just start and drive on.'

This is from the real world :-(

But hey, there really are some great repair guys out there who actually
know how to FIND a fault.
