Just keep shooting we'll worry about it when the smoke clears.

Great stuff. A brilliant emgineering feat. One of the local channels is replaying the series " Engineering Wonders of the Modern World" (or something like that). So far its done the Brooklyn Bridge and the American Transcontinental Railroad (or whatever its called). I'm sure they do one on the Panama Canal (at least I remember seeing one). It's a fascinating story, not only on the Engineering side but also other aspects such as medical.
The power of accurate observation is frequently called cynicism by those who don't have it.
