I here side with Mill against Davidson on singular causation. Davidson is out of sympathy with the whole way the causal conundrum is traditionally set up see Davidson (i995> pp. 3-17). Davidson thinks that talk of properties as standing in causal relations is a confusion. Events stand in causal relations. But it is events qua the kind they are that stand in causal relations - that is> event types that is, properties. This line of response to Davidson has been well put by Kim in many places see, e.g., his Mind in a Physical World (1998b), especially chapter 2, pp. 29-56.

Vendors will supply instructions for operation and maintenance of each system or piece of equipment. Plant personnel should make sure that the vendor s requirements are practicable and in line with established plant practices. All the relevant information then can be compiled for inclusion in a maintenance manual. The size of the plant and the nature of its organization will determine whether it is better to gather all maintenance information into a central comprehensive set of dedicated maintenance manuals or to file it by equipment item as part of the operating manuals. In either case, the plant must have clearly established lines of responsibility and well imderstood rules for performing certain types of work under permit (see Section 7.1.4). The maintenance information should cover the following ...
