Edit Reason: Time for new keyboard K - that one is almost beaten to death

R.I.P. 370 – Next.
AMSA run searches – ATSB investigates the wreckage – except there’s no wreckage yet and the ATSB search goes on, and on and on. But insofar as the Estimates committee is concerned; it’s all over, closed and forgotten, courtesy of? Watch Part V above, as neat a cut and shut job as you’d find anywhere.
"When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it. " (Matthew).
Well, I reckon Master Foley has earned his Choc Frog; just for patience and forbearance alone, if nothing else. In fact, after quiet reflection, I ‘ll throw a Tim-Tam into the package. He certainly earned them at last Estimates.
We are all used to reading ‘technical’ stuff; most have at one time or another been stumped – particularly when it comes to ‘computer’ logic and satellite magic. What do you do when you can’t nut it out – why, you talk to someone who can; don’t ya. But that conversation usually runs along the lines of – “I’ve got this bit (x) and this part (y) – but I can’t grasp (z)”. This is where your tame expert can assist; a good teacher can make it all crystal clear in fairly short order – IF you have grasped the basics. Poor old Foley - light years ahead of the Senate rabble who clearly had not done the homework or completed the first exercise set. Frustrating; mind you he covered that fairly well, particularly when asked to ‘conjecture’. That belongs in the pub, among peers and experts, if it belongs anywhere, if it ever happened. Hood stepped in and put ‘conjecture’ to the sword while Foley took a deep breath and counted to ten.
The last couple of minutes in the Part V recording are iMO the most significant; Foley did indeed warrant the praise (and the Choc Frog) but the notion of Hood and O’Sofullofit having quiet, confidential, deep and meaningful fireside chat, with tea a biscuits worries me half to death. I’d want a public transcript of that event – video too, if I could get it. Two foxes, one chook shed and no one home – go figure.
Bravo Master Foley – well done indeed. AMSA rules…
Toot toot…
