Dang! Your writing makes me laugh! I can’t thank you enough!! As for smart anything, I look for simple and dumb every time. Much less to go wrong. Give me mechanical controls over electronic talking ones whenever possible. Lol.

Bill, you are a genius of the understated. Quiet, unassuming, cunning, clever and down right spot on. I salute you humble knob.

I love this article, and as usual, it has at least one line that hits the target: "The manual explains all this in six languages, and none of them are retired guy." Thanks for a chuckle and some wisdom this morning.

"If we pushed the wrong button, it flashed like we had disappointed not only the machine, but several generations of engineers." I laughed so hard at this my automatic defibrillator went on alert and called 911. 😉
