Can't repair the tiles in the cold. Need heat to bond them.

Americans don't know the meaning of the word, can't!!

If Johnson & Johnson can invent an adhesive to stick on my greasy nose (nose strip), then our best scientists can invent a Lambeau Field-like array of subsurface heating wires to maintain temperatures sufficient for tile repair on critical shuttle wing edges.
