An intriguing risk management problem: which is the greater danger, or is there any way to address both issues at once? I've just spent the day at an electronics trade show. One of the seminars was in a room overlooking a highway. On the other side of the highway is a steep bluff. Heavy equipment was digging into it, removing all the vegetation cover, and making it steeper. I assume that this was a project which was going to be completed with the construction of a fairly massive retaining wall, but it looked to be a fascinating gamble: would you get the wall finished before the hillside collapsed? (Well, fascinating for me: I didn't have one of the houses at the top of the bluff.) ====================== (quote inserted randomly by Pegasus Mailer) [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Have nothing in your home that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful. - William Morris, 19th century founder of Arts & Crafts movement http://victoria.tc.ca/techrev/rms.htm http://blog.isc2.org/isc2_blog/slade/index.html http://twitter.com/rslade http://blogs.securiteam.com/index.php/archives/author/p1/ _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
