For the female of the species is more deadly than the male. A woman's guess is much more accurate than a man's certainty.

Let all who build beware The load, the shock, the pressure Material can bear. So, when the buckled girder Lets down the grinding span, The blame of loss, or murder, Is laid upon the man. Not on the Stuff - the Man!
