 I worked in a factory, doing industrial automation, for over 35
 years. We started with hard wired logic, but most of the time
 was with computer controls.

 Next to our shop was the tool and die maker's shop. Their
 non-climate controlled work area was in between.

 I was always amazed, they would make something, measurements to
 a ten thousandth of an inch, and expect it to work the first
 time. Guess that is important when you make something out of
 solid metal. Can't reprogram it.
