What if they had to operate 3-500Z tubes and couldn't agree on "up?"

That's easy Hal.  They would have been instructed to log onto 
amps at contesting.com where they would enter discussions on microgravity, why 
they are running tubes instead of solid state, and someone would ask this: 
if they put the 3-500Z amp on a tether outside the space station into the 
"vacuum" of space and the glass broke on the 3-500Z,  would the 3-500Z still 
keep operating.

In short, they would be so excited by the discussions, they would forget the 
original question.
