[Bill Glaze]

A little rule of thumb I've used that seems to work satisfactorily for 
me is:
If the pilot asks, after the round, any question about his flight  I can 
answer, I answer it.  If I can't answer it, I tell him simply "I don't 
remember the situation."
If the pilot doesn't ask, I don't volunteer anything. 
Seems to have worked so far, anyway.  While I'm sure folks can think of 
drawbacks, until the powers tell me to do otherwise, I believe I'll 
stick with it.  Or until I get beaten up by an irate mob.
