Sounds like a consensus of opinion has evolved that endurance is to tanks dry whomsoever you work for?! Hope that the ASCOT pilot involved reads this! The Equivocator mentioned that his first answer was probably an off the cuff reply followed, later, by the considered reply. Maybe, but it sounded very much like my teenage daughters attitude on occasion - 'Ive already said an hour and a quarter; weren't you listening?!! Duh!!' (You all must have experience of this!).
BTW, is 'Rodthesod' formerly of MASUAS?
