Women and tools...
Edited on Wed Nov-19-08 10:55 AM by Rabbit of Caerbannog
(Woman) Spacewalker loses tools in orbit: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/27784400/

Astronaut Heidemarie Stefanyshyn-Piper (whose name is entirely TOO long) caused her grease gun to explode, then dropped her tool bag into space, refused to lunge after it, then had the AUDACITY to borrow her partner spacewalker's tools!

1. Woman should not be allowed to use tools.

2. Cleaning metal shavings from a massive joint on the right-side solar wing of an orbiting space laboratory and then replacing a bearing and applying grease in the cold, cold vacuum of space is a man's job.

Discuss :evilgrin:

(edited to satisfy AirmensMom)

(ALSO NOTE TO SELF: Request niece return my Porter Cable pancake compressor and air stapler before she staples her hand to that new upholstery! Now that she's turned 21 - I just KNOW she's drink'n and staple'n...)

8. Why wasn't a backup kit packed on board?
That seems to me the real question.
