Ah, the laws of observation are far removed from reality, Ron, much as I wish they were not.
I am an expert supervisor and have been such for much of my life. Unfortunately on the day of arrival of this evil shipment my wife, son, his girlfriend along with other willing souls, were not within a coo-ee of my premises. Damn shame that. Nevertheless, given that I have recently taken up an exercise regime (OK, not a regime, just a bit of heavy walking . . . would you believe a light walk? . . . No? . . . How about a bit of masochistic calf and thigh torture?), I managed to complete the task.
Once I get the body into reasonable condition I shall start on the brain. Does one get headaches from brain training? I rarely suffer from headaches so perhaps that is why.
Oh, yes, I forgot. A billion degrees is hot, but only if you are close to the atoms which are jiggling.
