"What do the astronauts in the ISS do for their amplifiers in microgravity? 
What if they had to operate 3-500Z tubes and couldn't agree on "up?"

That's easy Hal.  They would have been instructed to log onto 
amps@contesting.com where they would enter discussions on microgravity, why 
they are running tubes instead of solid state, and someone would ask this: 
if they put the 3-500Z amp on a tether outside the space station into the 
"vacuum" of space and the glass broke on the 3-500Z,  would the 3-500Z still 
keep operating.

In short, they would be so excited by the discussions, they would forget the 
original question.
