mentoring

yeah, personal experience and observation of others. there are plenty of very young yet very experienced and very intelligent folks in the oil patch. Experience from the 'old hands' is valuable but I don't think there will be a problem such as claimed when the USS Iowa's main guns were blown up, e.g. the guns were never repaired/replaced supposedly because the necessary machining capability and expertise had been lost. The real story was probably that the old guns cost too much and didn't provide nearly as much versatility and capability as new weapons. Metaphor sadly intended.
