My scope is made Where ? UPDATE !

Joe as much knowledge as you have amassed I would think that it would be better to make your videos for general audiences and drop the somewhat "sick :( " humor. I know there are many who enjoy it but it adds NOTHING to your informative videos. At least make a second version for general audiences and children that frequent the forum!

Ode to Joe

I’ve a dog and a patch
I’m cool as a hare in the thatch
They fall for my charm
And send an alarm
On the arrival of a new catch.

My wit is up front and laid bare
Unlike the hidden grey hare.
I sip the bronze liquid elixir
My brain spins fast like a mixer
The tongue misses queue and words go askew
I’m left just a hair off the fixer.

So dad said time and again
Let the brain slow down the spin
You may possibly drown
Fart, fumble, fall down
Try again you old clown

We will wait for your rise from the ashes
Get up and shake off the trashes.
 
Just watched the update, Joe, and am wiser for having done so. I never really worried about where my gear was being made or whose hands were on the tools. Your video reaffirms for me my belief that quality is a mindset in the manufacturing world, not a proprietary attribute of a certain race or culture. Thanks for the edit of the video to give it more punch; as Eutsler would say, "where we give you the facts, not fluff".
