Failed But Not Forgotten
By Mark Flippo
We have our successes and our failures. You don't like to remember the failures but they are part of who we are!
Hartford Coliseum, Hartford CT lower right collapse! At approximately 4:15 a.m. on January 17, 1978, the roof of the Hartford Civic Center Arena collapsed. Only six hours earlier, five thousand people had been in the arena watching a basketball game. The arena roof was a 90 by 110 meter space frame! Delta Airlines Flight 1288 Engine_Failure!
Sometimes our minds just can't take any more. We need to lay our heads down on the desk top and take a nap! Millions of dollars go out the window when things like these fail! When a billion dollar Stadium collapses there was something that engineers should have noticed before it was torn apart! With all of the safety checks that planes go through you would think someone would see the handwriting on the wall of failure. When I see a disaster unfolding I pray for those directly involved in the line of fire! For those who have invested millions they must go through some self doubt and ask a lot of why's ! Some we may never truly understand! Plan for the future but don't forget the past, if you do so it will happen again!
