[Fourlanders] return to my usual dementia

[ww8rr]

That was NOT a catastrophic failure. Just a temporary loss of a function.
3 consecutive incorrect clicks of a mouse button will reformat your hard drive....THAT is catastrophic. Should we now put tape over the mouse buttons ?
But Jim...we will share the ENTIRE story about how Bob and i found the switch in the wrong position when we next talk....laughable to say the least.

If that switch causes such a catastrophic failure and is supposed to never be touched, put tape over it.  My 2 cents.

Rick Woodard is also coming and going to take the 16' White trailer for a test ride and check out his new brake controller.  I hereby christen that trailer as the new "Martha White" since Robin no longer comes with us and it is after all the cooking trailer too!
