Yea, maybe so. I don't have anything against the use of CA, 
it's more a matter of volume and discrimination of use. I 
wonder how many techs don't carry CA at all. I don't, and 
might be in two situations a year where I'd find it handy. I 
never have found it necessary. Meanwhile I'm flabbergasted 
reading this list, how often CA is the first choice for what 
seems to me to be about any and all field repair situations, 
and how liberally and indiscriminately it's applied. My 
admittedly archaic personal sense of what's right and proper, 
I suppose. Just consider the curmudgeonly source and ignore me.
