No kidding!! That's the reaction I had. I must admit I built a Jaw Jacker type of rig but hardly ever set it up because setting the hook is part of the fun!!

Thx, guys. I have no trouble learning new knots. My prob is that I forget them again unless I use them regularly! i.e at my age my forgetting curve is steeper than my learning. I think I'll buy 1 of those gizmos---I can order online and get it delivered to Cabelas Barrie for about $10.
"Under Wagoner's leadership, GM lost tens of billions of dollars, took billions in taxpayer-financed aid, and cut tens of thousands of jobs, including announced plans to cut 47,000 employees by the end of 2009."
and somebody calls that "leadership"!!!
The dividing line between 'foreign' and 'domestic' isn't so clear any more. Honda has had a plant in Alliston for decades now. I understand that many of their parts come from NA.
Many good points being made on this thread.
Japanese companies have more loyalty to their employees and vice versa compared to NA companies. Everyone, including engineers, are more disposable to the NA companies. Bigger turnover, more rookies! I have a 2005 Chevy Venture. Some rookie engineer decided that a fiber mat in the wheel wells would absorb some of the noise from the tires. Unfortunately it absorbs water as well. It's not just my vehicle that rusted out in those areas. When it did looked around parking lots and could identify other Ventures from a distance by seeing their rust pattern. ?
