It was one of the funniest science fictions stories I remember reading. And it's a great example of "doing what you can, with what you've got, where and when you are." The fellow who sat on the patch got a giant bruise on his buttock from the suction, but all that required was simple first aid. And I think everybody went out and got drunk after they were rescued.
