“I am bound to confess that the engineer in me is thrilled by this project.”
I confess that the taxpayer, and intelligent person in me are disgusted any engineer would be thrilled by such a boondoggle.The ROI is horrible, the efficiecies are terrible, the side effects were foreseeable and all was calculable.
Oh c’mon. How could the designers have foreseen that the sun would set?
The engineer in me wonders why the designers of this thing could not see it’s inherent limitations before building it. In the private world you pull a trick like this and you are finished. Someone should be fired or worse.
