Who would 'they' be? Ah, the evil government! I thought you would never rely on the goverment, Gawain?
If you didnt rely on them at all there would be no levies and no disaster thats true. Im talking about engineers here not the government. I also never said to neve ely on the govenment. Thats a stupid statement. Relying on them as little as possible though is another matter.

Man, oh man...
