That's pretty funny Ed, subtle. I'm clumsy trying to perform three and four armed tasks. Two handed tasks that are only accessible with the index and ring finger and often found under the hood of a car follow their own rules. I'm finding out that HD was/is as equally talented as GM & Ford at designing systems that combined ease of manufacture with difficulty of maintenance resulting in the good old ring and index finger/ thumb and forefinger substitution. An action guaranteed to result in dropping a fastener into an equally inaccessible place. A character building or an insane outburst of rage inducing exercise. I experience both, often on the day and can leave me a slumping, blubbering wreck until I snap out of it. Most sane people will stop but, not I. I'm persistent. "You can't quit! That's that's....just wrong! You quit when the jobs done, back to work,,, ye scurvy dog...Aye Capt'n thar be Gold in yon galleon, hoist the black flag...argh!" Pirate talk is always fun and lightens the mood.
