<p>[quote user="zugmann"]</p> <p>[quote user="Bucyrus"]</p> <p></p> <p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">No I did not miss his answer at all. But his answer is incorrect. The engineer faces all those variables and yet he must make the decision as to how many handbrakes to apply. He is not permitted to dodge his responsibility because he thinks there are too many variables. </span></p> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p></p> <p>You are full within your right to think my answer is incorrect. Just like you are full within your rights to not disclose what capacity you dealt with handbrakes. </p> <p>And in a similar vein I am well within my rights to dodge my responsibility (<em>although I have none to answer questions on this forum</em>) to give you a detailed answer. </p> <p></p> <p>This is my last answer to <strong>ANY </strong>of your questions. I wouldn't be surprised if others followed suit.</p> <p></p> <p>It was a nice run. But I think this little dance has come to an end.[/quote]</p> <p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">Zugmann,</span></p> <p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">When I said, “He is not permitted to dodge his responsibility because he thinks there are too many variables,” I was referring to the engineer of the oil train, not to you. But I can see that it could be interpreted either way. I don’t consider you to be dodging any responsibility. </span></p>
