I agree. Even the ones who might be that technically inclined just don't have the time. They are too busy working on other things. If an abend occurs, they need to fix it ASAP. AbendAID is far better for that than IPCS. Of course, for applications, I usually just look at the CEEDUMP and can tell where the problem is (assuming AbendAID doesn't have what is needed). -- Q: What do theoretical physicists drink beer from?
