RE: <The worst defects are ones that are rare, as they are the hardest to test for, and once found, they are the hardest to fix. Defects which happen every microsecond are duck soup to fix, its the ones that happen once per week that leave engineers and technicians grasping at straws. These kinds of errors are so rare, that you just can't tell management whether you have fixed it or not until a couple weeks have gone by.> Carl, I can't remember who but someone named these bugs "Heisenbugs" after Heisenburg's Uncertain Principle which says you can't observe something without changing it. Just putting a scope probe on these lines will change operation so you can't troubleshoot it.
