"Usually they have expert testimony, etc., however.." That was mostly what I meant Tickling, you and I agree.
If I'm going to write, let's say a bill about Diesel engine emissions, when the new super doohicky is attached supposedly it makes the emissions harmless. I would sit down with a diesel mechanic and ask about retrofitting, how it actually works, why it does what it does etc. Then as I was writing the bill I would run every technical part of it past him. I'd probably ask for a second opinion from another mechanic just to make sure afterwards.
This would not be difficult, and would keep me from looking like, well, like these guys look now.
My Mom the ER nurse had a very sharp tongue at times. I heard her say to someone, who was being a jerk at the time, that if she did her job as badly as he was doing his people would die.
This very much seems to apply in this case.
