Actually, I'm surprised Jax didn't jump all over him for not saying "sea
trial"
rather than "field test".

I did, shen. you just didn't catch on.

We 'sea trial' ships. We 'field test' boats. This boat came out on
'Aurora Australis' from Casey base.

Glorious autumn weather here but alas there was little wrong with the
workboat, so now it's on its cradle on the hardstand behind my store.
It'll go back south next season.

Just for Jaxie's edification, we test gear after we get it back so we
know what, if anything is wrong with it and what mods if any need to be
done to improve it before the next time it's used. With equipment in
places we work, it has to work the first time and you can't run to the
store if you've forgotten something, so we test before it ships south
and after it returns. I know this sort of approach to a problem is
beyond Jax's comprehension, but just maybe something might filter
through.....

petie, two things.

first, a question actually. Why in hell do you do a "sea trial" OR "field
test" of equipment to see if it works AFTER it has been used? Wouldn't it be
easier to just ask the people who used the stuff if it worked?

second, for your enlightenment the word "edification" does not mean
"enlightenment". consult with a good dictionary and note that "edification"
has nuances of theology associated with it.

G I don't have a problem with either term when used in context ..... Jax, on
the other hand......has problems, period.
The ship, otn mentioned, is probably the US counterpart to the Aurora
Australis.

Glorious autumn weather here but alas there was little wrong with the
workboat, so now it's on its cradle on the hardstand behind my store.
It'll go back south next season.

I've seen a few of these on their return to US (US version) .... they've
obviously had some hard use but are well built.

From Jax's response, it didn't .... but that's to be expected.

oxzy, the words are different and their usage is thus different. there was no
theological issue involved in Franks usage of the word "edification".

as state, nuances of theology.

To quote you
"for your enlightenment the word "edification" does not mean
"enlightenment". "

but you were correct re the nuances of theology...just got the main
part wrong.

second, for your enlightenment the word "edification" does not mean
"enlightenment". consult with a good dictionary and note that
"edification"

oxzy, nuances are part and parcel of the word. you are not joony or jeffies,
so don't play stupid like they do (they can't help it, you can).

Come now Jocks, telling half the story just won't cut it.

You stated that
"for your enlightenment the word "edification" does not mean
"enlightenment". "

You still aren't man enough to admit when you're wrong?

oxzy, don't play dense. petie used the word incorrectly.

oxzy, the words are different and their usage is thus different. there was
no
theological issue involved in Franks usage of the word "edification".

Well Jocks, you're nearly correct ...except that it was Peter ....and
he was refering to your edification / enlightenment with respect to
the testing of equipment

"Just for Jaxie's edification, we test gear after we get it back so we
know what, if anything is wrong with it and what mods if any need to
be
done to improve it before the next time it's used."

Actually, it appears that once again you are totally incorrect..what's
new eh?
