Hmmm ... I used to work with an old-timer at a Deere dealership-shop that complained about anybody having a radio on - when driving or working on a tractor. He claimed it was dangerous. Hey, maybe he was right. He was smoking a Marlboro one day and turning a 3/4" wrench on a Deere dozer - and dropped dead of a heart attack. Guess doing two things at a time did him in. With me? I can chew gum, turn a wrench, and listen to the radio and get by pretty well. Gotten away with it for a long time.
