I guess I've just seen the work of lesser shops too often, as I'm sure you have. Again I apologize if I over generalized. Since this has all been very public, and since I fired a shot I'll say that I think Bill's statements above more in line with the discussion. This should have been the sum and substance of his post, and I think he intended to make these points. Truly, advice on repairs given on this list can only be recommendations for further exploration, at best. Without seeing a problem first-hand it is difficult, maybe impossible, to know the true nature and extent of the situation. I would ask everyone, please give and accept advice in this spirit.
