You just lost the bet; please transfer $10 to my PayPal account
forthwith. 

As an aircraft mechanic in a former life; I can assure you that all of
us 
read the documentation more often than you read your email. Aircraft 
maintenance documentation has the force of law. When you 'sign' for 
the completion of a job, you make a legal declaration that you have
read 
and followed the instructions. If it turns out you didn't, you go to
jail. 

Anyone else wanna give me some money? 

Simon.
