My son's physics class discussed the Schrodinger's cat thing, and they
concluded that it was really annoying.

During a visit to P3X-7763, I seem to remember Narim mentioned that
the paradox of Schrödinger's cat was an elementary error in our
understanding of physics.

Clearly, then, these scientists are mistaken.....

Was that before they were observed or after.

I don't seem to remember P3X-7763 even existing.

How may quantum mechanics does it take to rebuild a DD6-71, and what
is their hourly rate?

If we can keep them busy will they stop killing the universe, or is it
all relative?

Engineers are idiots.

HEY!!!

My son and I just replaced the water pump on the Suburban, yesterday.
What sort of idiot would design an assembly where damn near everything
on the front of the engine is bolted to the water pump?

The kind that have to produce billable hours for the repair section of
GMC's string of dealerships.

I mean geese - how hard is that to understand? :)

You don't just
change the water pump, you disassemble everything from the front main
bearing to the back of the radiator. Idiots.

Bitch, bitch, bitch.

It keeps the repair shops in business.

When they replaced the engine in my new pickup, they had to remove the
cab, cross frame and exhaust system to get to the engine mounts. :)

Fortunately, I didn't have to pay for it.

Hey, that just shows the faith they had in that engine. ;-) Cars are
obviously not meant for a shade tree mechanic to work on anymore, but
when you have to drop an engine to replace a maintenance item like a
spark plug, it may not have been an engineer, but someone screwed up.

"When they replaced the engine in my new pickup"
"they had to remove the cab, cross frame and exhaust system to get to

That is a pretty eloquent way of making my argument...... ROFL.....

OF course I was.

When they told me they would have to have to literally drop the
chassis out of the body to replace the engine, I was shocked. I could
see removing the hook, but the entire body?

Damn...

Then again, I have a relative who has a new Volvo something or other
and had the emergency flasher go out. They had to remove the entire
dashboard to get to the flasher unit.

Talk about job security. :)

Unfortunately that is not uncommon, and it's not just Volvos. Same
problem with the high beam indicator light in a Ford I once owned, and
for the clock light in my wife's Honda.
