Hi Russ,
You made some excellent points. Serves me right for trying to use such a
simple anology to describe my thoughts.
Although, in the end, (and as you indicated) the solution is the same for
any of us... if the tool does not do the job, whether discovered sooner or
later ...and... as long as there is another suitable tool, out goes the
defective one.
If there is no other suitable tool, I guess we learn to live with the one we
have, learning it's strengths and weaknesses, and learning "safe" ways to
use it successfully.
