Welcome Paul.

Now we know why Cockerham is so good at dishing the dirt (was gonna say shoveling the ****).

Welcome, Paul. I'm working on my History degree as well. Great people here, mostly. You'll enjoy it if you've got a thick skin!

Thanks for the complement, Sam. Paul and John, you have my admiration for working on a goal you both apparently enjoy. Forty years ago in manure spreading school we were often confronted with the harshest of critiques for design proposals from a jury of faculty and professionals. That was the toughest of times emotionally, but looking back on it, not so far off base with the crap prevalent in the real business world. My sincere hope you're getting a good prep for the future and my wish for success for you both. Sam must live near the Massey-Ferguson factory himself?

Someone is still making Massey-Fergusons?

I have no idea, but rather doubt it. A reputable company, it was long acknowledged by their sales reps that they only had one piece of machinery they wouldn't stand behind, the manure spreader.
