Bit harsh in your comments there I feel Kagamuga.
From what I understand, no-one believed he could EVER fix PX, but there were a hell of lot that hoped he could ....and there were also quite a few that were surprised he managed to hang in there as long as he did.
But you know what, I seriously believe that when he left , he was able to do so with his integrity intact. Bit of a badge of honour for someone who was employed within a PNG SOE, especially PX.
