How come the sarcasm about CA? Not a cure-all, certainly, but oh so handy in Granny's ol' Wellington upright, ca. 1906, CA 2007 > > Alan Barnard Yea, maybe so. I don't have anything against the use of CA, it's more a matter of volume and discrimination of use. I wonder how many techs don't carry CA at all. I don't, and might be in two situations a year where I'd find it handy. I never have found it necessary. Meanwhile I'm flabbergasted reading this list, how often CA is the first choice for what seems to me to be about any and all field repair situations, and how liberally and indiscriminately it's applied. My admittedly archaic personal sense of what's right and proper, I suppose. Just consider the curmudgeonly source and ignore me. Ron N
