I know I must be a mechanical ghoul, but it would have been interesting to have been witness to that. I've seen machines destroy themselves in many ways and for many reasons, and the investigation is always one of the best parts of the aftermath. It's funny how those lawsuit things queer everything and shut mouths. I was involved in an accident in a company truck (major electric power company), and before I even got back to my base, I was told by radio to find a pay phone and call a certain person collect - the days before cell phones were common; he was an attorney for the company, and he told me to absolutely not speak to anyone about the accident except him. He headed the investigation, and after my deposition, I never heard anything about the case again. That was in 1989, and I still wonder what the outcome was.
