    Not in its entirity but it all should be gone by end of March.End of an era for most of the people there.Some engineers have been there for 40+ years.

    wkd, welcome on this great forum
    It's better to keep your mouth shut and give the impression that you're stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.

    It's impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenious...

    Don't ever underestimate the power of stupid people when they are in large groups.

    Please, don't teach me how to be stupid....
    No job is as important as to jeopardize the safety of you or those that you work with.
