This is not the place to flame about failed circus,
but I've seen what
some of the poorer Field Sevoids can do. Suffice it to say I'd not trust
them to keep a torch (flashlight, not a XXX :-)) running, let alone a
minicomputer. I've also met some excellent ones, BTW, who taught me a lot.

I've begun to feel that anyone who got into Field Circus work after
'83 or so shouldn't be allowed any tools trickier than a screwdriver.
