THANKS for this one - you just earned my RESPECT ... you really ARE about this fropma reasonable angle, just needed to say that. I *still* disagree over how *POORLY* this has been implemented (best "bad news" is yet to come, I genuinely HATE to be prepared for "OK genius" mode once it's up and not quite running safely ... but engineers in "life critical" applications (thank HEAVENS I've only RARELY had to write "nuclear core control level" software, but so far none of what I ever wrote caused a busted pipe) tend to be INSANE about "what if" ... that's what "LIFE critical" is all about ...But this whole project COULD have been done a WHOLE lot smarter, and a WHOLE lot saner if ONLY they'd talked to REAL engineers and not salescritters before proceding with this mess. :( And it *IS* a mess ... let them cut it in ... YOU'LL SEE. :( |
