However, when the Navy spent three months trying to turn me into a Civil Engineer, they did mention this frequently: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyatt_Regency_walkway_collapse This story definitely has a much happier ending.

The two sides didn't have any rational arguments about the subject at hand. But, seriously, if you like this bill you hate America? That's one thing that annoys me. I think we all have very similar ideas of how we want things to be (healthy people with food/jobs/low crime) but we just have very different ways of approaching it. So, I don't understand why we so frequently attack the motives of the other people. It's not the motives that bother me, it's the method. Hmmm… this is actually why I try not to debate when angry.

Boring? Yes. Evil? Are you kidding me? I watched the news every morning while I was in Ohio, and in that one week, I came to hate newscasters. I just want to know what's going on, I don't want their comments or opinions. Even if I agree with them, I don't feel it's their place. Mr. Rogers. Boring? Yes. Evil? Are you kidding me?
