My $.02 to the general chatter: Engineering Maxims: As American as: Build it so it has no choice but to work. As British as: It doesn't have to work in the damp. As Japanese as: It doesn't have to work as long as we can export it. As German as: It doesn't have to work it as long as it's overly complicated. As Italian as: It doesn't have to work as long as it looks good. As Canadian as: It's ok with us as long as the Americans like it and it drives in the snow. As French as: It doesn't have to work as long as it is different and French. As Swiss as: It may work, but it's expensive. As Belgian as: If it doesn't work, pull it all off the shelves. |
