Boy howdy (I've always wanted to say that) does that ring true here in Ecuador. There are just so many things that I took for granted back in the USA that I can't get here, be it technology, tools, food ingredients. If something I brought from there breaks, I make sure to tear it apart to see if it is something I can fabricate from what I can get here. It really pays to be a Jack/Jill of all trades. I've come to appreciate the value of knowing a little of everything, and not much of anything in particular.
