Do you remember in the movie 'Back to the Future'... where the Professor had to climb to the top of the clock tower and hook up an electrical wire for Michael J Fox to get back home?
Well the clock on the tower at the top of the temple, the West facing clock, stopped working during a storm about a week age. One of the assistant engineers had to repel off the top of the clock tower - yes on the temple, to see what was wrong. He had to climb the stairs that started at the fifth floor, then hook up a rope and lower himself down. This would be equal to about six or seven stories up there. Elder Fellows is a missionary serving here, and was called to be an assistant engineer along with other duties. He was a fireman in his other life, [and he also sang in the Mormon Tabernacle Choir], so he says, "not a big deal". However it looked like a big deal to me. And.... it brought back memories of that scene in the movie 'Back to the Future'.
No, the engineers have not figured out what is wrong.
He is about our age, not a young pup, if you know what I mean.
