really function well the third party should also have a bit of situational
awareness ("Oh, by the way, it doesn't matter if we fix the autopilot, I see
that the stabilizer is also broken") and is able to tell the relevant agency
the problem. Sounds entirely doable, but it actually does require both the
prole, the third party, and the organization employing them to learn how to
do it. I doubt that will be easy - we are still learning what outsourcing
can and cannot do, and how to use it well.  Anders

Some of you hardware gurus help me out here.  Assuming Google glass or
equivalent, along with Skype, let us use the example of the motorcycle
repair.  Is current hardware up to the task of letting me point to things
with a cursor on the other person's vision?  If I had the other prole
looking at her bike so I can see what she is seeing, I want to use my cursor
to point at something in her field of view and say "Ok, now remove this
bolt, and don't lose the washer underneath it."  I think I could coach a
prole all the way through a complicated repair job that way.
