A Raider Salute from Dan Anderson:
Gayl, a professor in our M-Tech Automotive Department on Godfrey, went well beyond “helpful and knowledgeable” last night. I brought in a motorcycle head with a broken bolt in it (don’t ask!). I didn’t tell Gayle, but an automotive shop and a motorcycle shop had already refused to attempt the extraction. I was expecting to hear that, because the bolt was deep seated and broken at an angle, I’d need to buy a new head–they run $900. Instead, after trying several different drill bits at various angles, out came that little bugger! Thanks so much, Gayle.
Sometimes, all you need is just a knowledgeable friend or simply spend big time.
