This Week's Puzzler

The Assembly Line

Time for the new puzzler.

Here it is.

Back in the 1990s, there were some factories in Russia, and maybe in other countries as well, where the people working on the assembly line, are wearing diving suits. The old time diving suits with the big metal masks and the hoses and stuff. 

That's what these workers are wearing as they go about their their jobs.

Yet they never go in the water.

The question is, why?

Good luck.

Answer the Puzzler »
Remember last week's puzzler?

The Flaming Repair

This puzzler was sent in to us a long, long time ago from a very loyal listener. 

Here it is, word for word. 

Years ago, cars commonly had something that almost all sea-going ships still have. On both the cars and the ships, this thing runs from forward, aft on the port side and aft, forward on the starboard side. 

For people who don't know sailing terminology, that means front to back on the left and back to front on the right.

This is something that was on both cars and ships in plain sight.

Hint! Ships still have it, but most cars do not have it now. 

What was it?
